    Mmmm... not if you allow users to directly update the Bayesian filter
    database. If you want to keep the company policy, then spam should be
    forwarded to a person responsible of checking them and feeding the result
    to sa-learn. Otherwise, you might end by someone sending an email to be
    considered spam, and another user sending the same email to the list of
    non spam - the filters would get mad at you :-)

    X-)

    I've never said file size is not important, contrary to what many
    developers and other people think :-)
