True, but you're forgetting that there are two sets to each user. Spam and ham. While spam is generally going ot be a constant across users the
likelihood of ham being constant is not.


No, just that it seems on our systems, ham is no longer all that important. (After the initial setup 2 years ago where a ton of ham was fed in...) I feed in 100-300 spams for every ham that gets fed in, almost all of it from my own receipt across 4-6 accounts I have. I get some from some of the smarter (technically) customers once in a while. But feedback from customers is that the spamassassin gets very very few false positives or negatives. What I do do is feed in ALL spam back as spam again to reinforce it and only feed in the false positives as ham and occasionally a few other things while I am at it and just copy a few random good mails out of my inboxes....

It turns out to work very well
