If you let it run long enough to pass the 200/200 ham/spam thresholds,
yes;  there's no distinction I've ever met about where the learning came
from.

That said, I wouldn't trust a pure autolearn setup with stock autolearn
thresholds - all too much spam will get learned scoring under 0.1.  :(

Right. It might be prudent to review the defaults before the next major release.
