As in "technically possible" or "would be reasonably effective"? Allthough I have never done it, I suspect that you could dump the db and restore it on a different server quite easily, even if there were different db backends on those machines, there's a readme on upgrading bayes db that would give useful clues, IIRC. I think sa-learn --backup is your friend. But you need to ask yourself if it is sensible to do so. For it to be sensible, the spam and the ham on both domains should be similar. In some cases, it is (I trained my first bayes db with massive amounts of both ham and spam from my old uni account, it worked great), in some cases, it is not. The users and uses of those two domains may be very different, and simply the domain name may skew the results. So, I would think twice about doing it. Alternatively, you could train with smaller amounts of ham and spam from the other domain just to get it up to speed, but make sure you train it with its own spam and ham as fast as you can. Could be a reasonable middle ground.
