Re: Site-wide training with same message, different recipients and different classification

It depends on which gets run first.  Each time sa-learn runs on the same 
message, it overrrides the previous training.  (That way you don't have 
to run sa-learn --forget every time something needs to be reclassified.)

So if user A trains it as spam, and use B trains it as ham, and user A 
goes first, user B will override it and it will be treated as ham.

Now that's if one message has two recipients.  If, on the other hand, 
the two users get separate messages with the same content (but different 
message IDs), SA will learn from both and the two sets of data will 
balance each other out.
