I guess yes, spamd is the deamonized version of SA, and to my
knownledge the only one. Spawning SA for each email would take
LOOOONNNG time.

One way is to use procmail to push flagged messages into different
mail boxes.

Another solution is to quarantine spam messages
http://www.cs.ait.ac.th/laboratory/email/quarantine.shtml. I like that
solution because it works independently from IMAP: quarantine flagged
spam and recover them if you think they are valid.
