Run every two or three weeks:

        sa-learn --showdots --spam --mbox [your SPAM box]
        sa-learn --showdots --ham --mbox [your other boxes]

At the beginning is not perfect; the more you train the Bayesian filter,
the better it gets.

Every two or three weeks? I process spam a few times per hour. I have a script that checks a couple of Maildir folders for the false negatives or the false positives that I drag into them and then bayes is updated. My wife sees a lot more spam because she is not as diligent and only updates her bayes every few days. I suspect that doing this every few weeks would be nearly completely ineffective [from a bayes approach] with the way spam changes.
