Hmm. I'm not really sure how that can be. Anything detected as spam is 
rejected at SMTP time and autolearned. Everything else is autolearned as ham, 
although my users are pretty good at picking out the spam and reporting it as 
such (we then relearn as ham).

Yes (not my mailing lists but others'), by auto-learning.

Site-wide. All training is done as the SA user. The bayes database only 
contains one userid.

What does this mean?
