Morning all, So I'd recommend a different take. Autolearn is an abomination we never should have published. It is, in effect, a switch to allow a inherent bias in the modelling to grow and continue.
Disable autolearn, wipe your Bayes store, and manually train from hand classified ham and spam. Oh, and use Redis for the backend store. The difference is usually night and day.
