I guess as the OP of this thread, my point was that why shouldn't sa-learn skew up the (existing) scores in the AWL when it is given a spam to learn? IOW, if an entry in the AWL doesn't already exist, don't add one but if there is a matching entry, skew it's scoring to ensure that the next time it's used for this sender, it adds to the spamminess score, not subtracts from it. I have come to understand via this thread that the "--add-addr-to-blacklist" (or is it more correctly "--add-to-blacklist"?) argument effectively does that, adding a "fake" entry to the AWL representing a spam scored at 100 points. My proposal would be to roll up this "--add-to-blacklist" spamassassin argument into sa-learn --ham with the exception of only modifying an existing entry, not creating new ones. b.
