Also, you can download a file of spam from the SpamAssassin site and use
it to train your bayes database.  I did this originally as I have a low
volume server and it was taking forever to get bayes trained.  It's not
the best way as you're teaching bayes from someone else's spam, but I
figured spammers are an equal opportunity group and send their stuff to
everyone!

Once it's up and running it automagically trains itself on your specific
spam from there on.
