Hello,

I'm trying to figure out how to use 'sa-learn' to train SA's spam filter.
I have already looked at the man page.

I am not entirely sure what kind of input is acceptable to sa-learn.  

On teaching ham:
================
I gather that I can give sa-learn an entire mailbox and it'll know how to 
interpret it.  Am I right? I am using mutt.  Are mutt's mail-boxes similar 
to what sa-learn expects.

On teaching spam:
=================
This is the tricky one.  Most of the spam I get is successfully filtered 
by the current SA rules.  These are stored in a sepparate file.  I would 
like to use this file to training SA.  The problem is that SA alters the 
header siginficantly.  SA's output includes an analysis explaining why it 
thinks that the give email is spam.  This will do bad things to the 
statistical approach.  Is there a way to use this output to train SA?
