Ah - I attached the last phrase to the wrong bit of preceding stuff :-)

Spam filters generally work best if they are trained on both ham and spam.  I 
use bogofilter, so I have two folders - bogotrain_ham and bogotrain_ham.  
When I have a week or two's mis-tagged stuff I then run the command that 
works on both folders - in this case it's

/usr/share/bogofilter/contrib/contrib/trainbogo.sh -c -H /home/anne/Maildir/.INBOX.bogotrain_ham/cur/ -S /home/anne/Maildir/.INBOX.bogotrain_spam/cur

I don't know the command for salearn, but I'm sure it will do something 
similar.
