You should try using the "CC Messages -> Copy Spam and Send to this
Address" feature.  It will (99% of the time) leave you a copy of the
email that you can play with in a separate mail account (ie. forward to
the "notspam or spam" ASSP addresses / whitelist or de-whitelist etc...)

Is the date not considered at all? Seems like it would be more effective
to toss older spam in favor of keeping more current spam. Otherwise one
might say rebuild the bayesian db mostly off older spam. Instead of
current patterns. Unless that's also part of the random design.

Part of what I am getting at is stuff being false rejected as spam.
Disappearing or etc before I have a chance to move/sort it. In the mean
time, most times I have re-built the bayesian db. So kinda screwed
myself with no way to correct now that the email is MIA :) Just have to
hope another similar one arrives, that I can catch in time to move to
like errors/notspam or etc.
