You could try lowering the spam threshold if you see that your ham is
getting scored low enough to avoid becoming FP's. I found that as
Bayes got better, I was able to lower the threshold by 0.5 from my
starting point of 9 every week or so until I reached my current
threshold of 3.5.

I'm still in the early days of using SA and quite a few spams are still
getting through. My setup for spamd (in /etc/sysconfig/spamd) includes the -L
switch for local checking only. I figured using the internet-available checks
might help improve the success rate, but ever since I removed the -L switch
and restarted spamd I'm finding that my internet connection is hanging up at
some point, regardless of whether I'm using Fetchmail or Kmail to gets
messages. I'm on a single-channel (64k) ISDN connection. Should I expect this
to be slow? What do other people do with low-bandwidth dial-up connections?
For the time being I've reinstalled the -L switch...
(Incidentally, I am using sa-learn - it's run as a cron job each night).
