None of this addresses the original posted concern:  When you feed one
or more messages to sa-learn, it should report:  "Learned from X messages",
where X is some number greater than zero.

If sa-learn reports "Learned from 0 messages," it means that it didn't
put anything into the Bayes database.  The main reason that I have seen
for this, is that SA thinks that it has already seen the message before,
meaning that the Message-ID in the mail is already stored in the bayes
database.

However, the original poster already stated that he used "sa-learn --forget"
to try to remove any traces of the message, and yet sa-learn STILL
continues to say "Learned from 0 messages", meaning that it does not
want to learn from the particular message.

I had several spams not too long ago in which all of them used the same
Message-ID.  SA refused to learn from any of them except the first one. 
What can be done to combat that?  Of course, duplicate Message-ID's are
a violation of RFC's, but spammers don't care.  :)
