Just reading man sa-learn - you are not supposed to learn spam/ham from this mail list

[Julian Field]

    [ The following text is in the "ISO-8859-1" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

You could use a ruleset for "Is Definitely Not Spam", and put a rule in 
that ruleset that says "yes" to mail from the list address and to you. 
Make it say "no" for the default.

If you need more help on rulesets, check out the online docs and buy the 
book.
