that is what you should do. You need to train on both spam and ham, since
the BAYES filter must know how they differ...

That has always given me pause, as I get very little ham.  Got one this AM.

I gather that aged info is not useful?

I think that could be useful, mostly when it's aged HAM, but even aged spam
is better than no spam...
Training missed spam is more important but even training catched spam helps
In your case (just a few ham) I'd train _all_ ham and all spam that does not
hit BAYES_99

I looked at my spam history - only ~10% of my spam does not hit BAYES_99
and last spam hitting BAYES_50 was about a year and 500 spams ago.
