No. Once you've sa-learned an email correctly, whether by auto or manual activity, there's no need to sa-learn it again.

Once a day I collect all the spam from my spamtraps, and my ham from my hamtraps, and review them to verify 1) they contain only spam or ham as desired, and 2) they do not contain any technical anti-spam discussion (this list and similar personal email are the only things I've found that will poison my bayes database). I then sa-learn that collection of spam and ham, and then concatenate them onto a weekly spam and a weekly ham mbox. Each week I migrate that weekly mbox into my mass-check corpus. Each spam and each ham is learned only once. Bob Menschel ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
