Apart from the database, you'll need a Perl module to let SA look up addresses in the database. How to populate the database is up to you: but adding addresses you send mail to and having your SA interface mark these addresses as not-spam is unlikely to cause false positives.
My preferred way of populating the database depends on you running a local copy of Postfix. Configure Postfix to BCC all mail to a mailbox thats's scanned for outgoing mail and run an overnight process to add destination addresses from outbound mail to the database and discard the messages as they're processed. That said, I use this mechanism to populate a mail archive and a view to select the addresses I've sent mail to from the archive. This approach runs adequately fast and requires minimal maintenance apart from a weekly backup. HTH, Martin
