I talked about this with the upstream author to have a more appropiate opinion. He answered me with a few differences to sa-learn which I would like to describe here: * sa-learn-cyrus is able to work on a specified list of mailboxes and can search for mailboxes itself. That way they can be selected by regular expressions. * sa-learn-cyrus is made to be run regularly (e.g. by cron). It corrects for example permissions of bayes database if necessary. * Mails which are given to sa-learn can be deleted in the mailbox (optional). Concerning your idea to integrate it into SA oder Cyrus packages: I think this is kind of difficult because sa-learn-cyrus is just useful when you have both of them installed. So where to pack it? A single package for it depending on both SA and Cyrus seems to be better for me. Beyond that the upstream author wrote that he made sa-learn-cyrus to work on site-wide bayes databases but it should be able to work on user specific ones, too. I don't really know how this differs from sa-learn but he had that as an argument... ;) So well, after all it's not my decision whether to make packages for it or not but I think it's a good tool for Cyrus admins who are using SA and I guess it should imho be packaged independent of SA or Cyrus. Feel free to comment on this! Hauke PS: Again CC-ing the rest of the Debian Cyrus team for their opinions
