Unfortunately, it is not moot to me. So, if you don't mind i will
pick up this thread. I STILL want to know how to run sa-learn so
that spam will be put into the system Bayesian database and not just
in my personal one.
This is not just a personal problem. I have trusted users, to
whom i would like to give the ability to report spam on a system
level and inexperienced users that i want NOT to have that ability.
So an explanation would really be appreciated.
Thank you for any clues.
sis
PS [OT - Off-Topic - at least, off my topic] Frankly, the concept of
"personal" spam database tokens is not clear to me. Shouldn't spam
be spam for everyone? If it is unsolicited bulk e-mail it's spam. It
doesn't matter if it's commercial, religious, political, etc. So, is
there some kind of spam that i may not be aware of, that can be
considered spam by one person and NOT spam by another?
