There is a certain amount of overhead involved in reading the mailbox and
processing messages even if they have already been learned...
Messages are that it sends from internal, so il learn that words are not spam
Internal messages are not spam

Bayes training should be manually reviewed. Blind training is fragile and
invites the system to go badly off the rails when for some reason it makes
a poor decision that is self-reinforcing.

I found useful to put in cron a little script like this
Each minute cron launch this script that takes messages of last

What's the purpose of this script, what's the reasoning behind running
this thingie every minute?
What you do is training the Bayes filter every minute. Training a
filter is something which should never be done unattended, but always
supervised, because if not you will get bad results over time.
The execution of the training program can safely be automated, though I'd agree
once per minute is a bit excessive. The classification of messages into the
folders that are trained from is what needs manual supervision.
