    Thanks John, Jon, & Jon for replying. It is appreciated.

    John, don't really know what Kmail format is. If I check on the
    properties of that mailbox the format is greyed out, but looking
    carefully it looks like mbox. Anyway, I know nothing about scripts,
    where to put them, or how to execute them. Wish I did :-( Maybe
    someday I will. I am trying.

    Jon & Jon Both of you sent me basically the same thing with a slightly
    different approach, and I said "A Ha !" that is the problem. I
    understood what you were telling me. Unfortunately, it did not work by
    using either of the suggestions. Get the same old " "No such file or
    directory
    at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Mail/SpamAssassin/CmdLearn.pm line
    120."

    So then I created a regular (non-mail) directory and moved all of the
    MissedSpam messages into it and did an sa-learn on it. Told me it
    learned from 8 of the 50+ messages I put in there. Don't know why it
    learned from only 8 out of 50 ?? but I guess that is another story.

    Anyway, can't keep doing that because I would spend forever moving
    messages around so sa-learn would work. If any of you have more
    suggestions or guidance it would really be appreciated.

    Thanks again, Bob.S

    PS John, If you could point me at some way of learning how to use
    scripts it would also be really appreciated.
