I'm surprised their is nothing about this in the kolab wiki.

Here is an idea

set "addr_extension_spam" in amavisd.conf (be carrefull to edit the
template and run kolabconf)
to the name of the folder you want (I will call it 'spam' ) . This
will 'rewrite' the recipient address from
user at domain to user+spam at domain.

Then each user must create a so named folder in its INBOX and give the
'p' right to 'anyone' to
authorize plus addressing.
If the user don't do that, SPAM will continue to be delivered into the INBOX.

Unsig cyradm you can setup the 'expire' attribute of these subfolder
'spam'  to 15 days
and cyr_expir that is ran one a day will automaticaly any mail older
than 15 days.

If you dont want to use 'expire' attribute, you can use ipurge command
to delete mails to oold or too big in  some mailboxes.

You can automate the use of cyradm using scripting, like in

for user in user1 user2 ; do
    echo createmailbox user/$user/spam at example.com
    echo sam user/$user/spam at example.com anyone p
    echo mboxcfg user/$user/spam at example.com
done | cyradm -u manager --password ***** localhost

Hope this help
