R: R: Italian spam

[Sergio Rabellino]

I thinks you must set the directory once in 
/etc/Mailscanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf, so you definitely choose a 
directory where bayes will store the database.
I do not suggest an hidden directory, or the risk is that you will 
forgot everything in a week.... or less.

then launch (as an user that can write into that dir )
 sa-learn --no-sync -C /etc/Mailscanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf < spam.eml
... once for every message...
 sa-learn --sync

and your Mailscanner will see the modified bayes db.
I ask the experts on this lists if the procedure is formally correct.

Bye.
