Thanks John.

I think the major problem I might have is the UID. All my users share the same UID and are authenticated via courier's mysql authentication. The UID itself is not used to distinguish users, all users are distinguished by their email address and have separate Maildir folders.

Because of that, I assumed that dspam's virtual_uids table would then also have the same UID for all users, and just a different username field.

So will my setup work with dspam as is, considering that the virtual_uids table has the same uid for all users?

If all users have the same UID then that is the only UID which will accumulate history. The system is working corrrectly as you configured it. Why did you set it up this way if you wanted each user to have their own history/training? Perhaps you want to read the documentation on shared groups (which means that you can have training that is shared, but their own quarantine folder)? Or possibly you want to investigate global groups (where shared classification is used until individual training takes over)?

FWIW, in recent testing with 3.6.8, dspam started capturing spam messages with less than 2 days training, so you may be overthinking this issue...
