Need advice on groups. My users do not teach their dspam. I have to 
repeat this again, my users do not teach their dspam.

Currently I am using my account as GLOBAL GROUPS. Here is my group 
setting in /home/dspam/group
groupGlobal:classification:*myacco...@example.com.sg

I train my account whenever there is an error. I am using TOE. Here is 
my dspam_stats.

myacco...@example.com.sg:
                TP True Positives:                 18152
                TN True Negatives:                 59943
                FP False Positives:                  233
                FN False Negatives:                 1216
                SC Spam Corpusfed:                     0
                NC Nonspam Corpusfed:                  0
                TL Training Left:                      0
                SHR Spam Hit Rate                 93.72%
                HSR Ham Strike Rate:               0.39%
                PPV Positive predictive value:    98.73%
                OCA Overall Accuracy:             98.18%

Is this the best type of group to use when my users do not train their 
dspam? Or should I use merged group? The sad part is my users do not 
train dspam.

Advice is appreciated.
