It's generally a good idea, to learn every HAM and SPAM, regardless if
SA recognized it or not.

The point is, recognizing a mail as SPAM does not necessarily mean, this
particular mail is auto-learned. You constantly have to feed new mails
to the Bayes database to improve it.

Even more, you have to do the same for HAMs as well, as you may end with
a badly biased Bayes database otherwise. Bayes even won't kick in,
before there are 200 SPAMs and 200 HAMs (sic) learned.

Add a --no-rebuild option to the first sa-learn command, or you safely
can drop the --rebuild command AFAIK.
