Hmm. I understand what you're saying, but sa-learn has never worked that way. AFAIK it takes the mbox as a commandline argument which can include shell globbing and such. Anyway, my issue was resolved once I realized that I had an old version installed earlier in my path than the new sa-learn. I can't test your suggestion because I don't have the problem version around anymore.
