Messages aren't going to score the same at the beginning and end with Bayes.
The idea is that you *want* to learn from mails as they go through.

The reasons are:

a) AWL is meaningless for score runs, so don't bother.
b) "mass-check --learn" forces autolearning in mass-check on a percentage
   basis, versus the normal autolearn system which is just based on
   score -- which aren't set yet.
