sa-learn --spam -C /etc/mail/spamassassin --showdots
--dir /path/to/directory/full/of/spam/msgs

sa-learn --ham -C /etc/mail/spamassassin --showdots --dir /path/to/directory/full/of/ham/msgs

i have gone through the documentation. "--dir /path/to/directory/full/of/ham/msgs" which path i have to mentioned here.
because in my setup there is no particular Maildir for Spam/Ham
so will it be fine if i give absolute path like "/home/vpopmail/domain/example.com", will it work

Note: the bayes_file_mode option is mentioned at the end of the article, 
but is generally quite important in sitewide setups. Also be sure to use 
7's not 6's. That mask sometimes gets used in temp dir creation, so the 
X bit is important. (SA also won't ever create a bayes DB file with the 
X bit.. it's really a mask, not a strict mode)

The AWL sitewide setup works quite similarly, but with 
auto_whitelist_path  and auto_whitelist_file_mode instead of bayes_path 
and bayes_file_mode..

Alternatively, you can set both up using a SQL database.. this generally 
yields higher performance, but does require a little SQL know-how.
