UPDATE
Thought I would provide an update to this..
Feeding spam to my "spam" email causes all email to be thought of
as spam wether it is or isnt.   SO I started feeding more "HAM" in thinking
that maybe there need to be more training for HAM. Still ALL email
coming in is thougt to be spam and dumped to spam bucket.  SO I completely
deleted my corpus and did NOT feed in any SPAM.  Instead I fed ALL HAM
EVERY email that I could get that I knew was GOOD I fed to HAM.
This still isnt working the way I want.  ALL email still gets dumped
to the spam folder.    I am postive that my HAM is going to
correct table.  I dug in and did a select * from every table and the only
table
that contains anything is the HAM table.  Ive made no mods to the initial
XML file hereing except for the recommended changes that were prescribed.
WHAT could I be doing wrong.
