Hello,

Will email given an extremely low score by the "all_spam_to" directive be
used by the Bayesian auto-learning function?  I'm concerned that the volume
of email handled by our support department may be adversely skewing the
Bayesian database.

No, whitelists won't cause auto learning.


The bayesian classifier auto learns using a score which is calculated completely separately from the normal score. It uses scoreset 0 or 1 (ie: what would be used if you didn't have bayes) and it doesn't use whitelists when calculating the score to determine if it should autolearn.

At least, that's what the devs have said a few times on the list.
