I am looking for the ham and spam files

    [ 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. ]

The command below take your content and read it and add the good bits to 
the ham table and the bad bits to the spam table of your bayes DB.

The DB you downloaded from FSL is the product of someone (Steve?) having 
already learned the good and bad bits for you, hence no need to run the 
commands you list below, simply untar the FSL download into the correct 
location, check the permissions, check your paths in 
spam.assassin.prefs.conf match the location of your new bayes DB, do an 
sa --lint test and reload mailscanner.

Good luck
Pete
