Question about SPAM learning address...

[nhouse]

Hello folks... I have searched for this, just so you'll know, but didn't find exactly what I was looking for. Ok, I understand the concept of the SpamAssassin learning principal connected to the "SPAM Learning" address... but to make it work properly, should that particular address be "unprotected?" I guess what I am saying is, if the SPAM learning address has SPAM protecting applied to it... will SpamAssassin be double-dipping, so to speak? This may be obvious to some of you folks here... but I just want to have it setup as best as I can so it will learn quicker.

Thanks!!!

Generally speaking It doesn't really matter if the learning address is protected or not. Since everything in the spam learning box should be marked as spam, it will not matter if it was caught previously or not.
