> why do you need to alter the average scores of ham/spam?

What a horrible horrible mess if we can't!

One example:
All of my users have set their "optimal" spam thresholds to some number between 0.0 and 10.0.
If the SA developers correctly shift around test scores, add new and/or improved algorithms, etc., and I need to take advantage of the latest, greatest technology and upgrade to the latest version of SA, then without such a mechanism, all of my users' spam threshold settings (that they had previously spent a lot of hopeful time setting) will be totally off the mark and are all of a sudden likely to miss all kinds of legitimate email messages! i.e., kill me!


To this logical end, SA should be constantly/automatically shifting this midpoint back to 5.0 anyway.
