Having the users forward the messages to an account like that is "a bad thing to do" according to the guys on the spamassassin mailing list. You need to bounce the messages to those address, not forward. By forwarding, programs like Outlook rewrite the headers, so your Bayes thinks that the spam messages are being sent from the user that is sending them.

How to bounce a message when It already received by email client (OE/Outlook/Thunderbird) ?

     How to bounce/redirect mail

As I've mentioned, /forwarding/ mail into a spamtrap registers /your/ email address as being a spam source; not good. Instead, we want to use the _*redirect* <http://email.about.com/library/weekly/aa112000a.htm>_ or *bounce* feature available in a number of mail programs.
