Right.

He said "automatically delete OVER a certain score".
Imho, there are 3 classes of messages:
1) those that score above the spam threshold, but below the autolearn
threshold WITH the bayes score
2) those that score above the autolearn threshold WITH bayes, but below
without Bayes
3) those that are autolearned (ie. above the autolearn threshold without
bayes)

Catagory 1 gets put in to a folder to look for false positives.
After scanning, they have sa-learn run on them (using --ham or --spam).

Catagory 2 have "sa-learn --spam" run automatically then dumped to
/dev/null.

Catagory 3 get sent straight to /dev/null
