No. Barracuda normally sends quarantine messages to end users and they can then 
say if a mail is ham/spam by pressing a link inside the mail. The link has the 
username/password already encoded in the url (it's not the normal 
http://username:passw...@host/uri/ thing. It's more or less a hash that is 
already encoded in the url that automatically authenticates/validates the 
user). Pressing that link then triggers Barracuda to release the message from 
quarantine and learn. That's it. Retraining HAM as SPAM is still done by the 
admin.
