Hi there

We've got a problem with a tonne of spam getting BAYES_50 or even
BAYES_00. We're re-training SA using "spamc -L spam" but it doesn't seem
to do as much as we'd like. Sometimes it doesn't change the BAYES_
score, and other times it might go from BAYES_50 to BAYES_80

I think bayes is working (there's also a tonne of mail getting BAYES_99)
but I'm guessing there's some "learning logic" I'm not aware of to
explain why me telling SA "this is spam" doesn't seem to be entirely
listened to?

So my question is: shouldn't "-L spam"/"-L ham" always make SA re-train
the bayes more explicitly? Or is that really not possible with a single
email message? (ie it's a statistics thing). Just trying to understand
the backend :-)
