+===== Automate learning =====
+This learning can be automated by:
+  * Create a dedicated email account for Spam and another dedicated account for Ham.
+  * When a user receives any Spam they should forward this onto the inbox of the Spam email account.
+  * Users can also copy non-spam email to the inbox of the Ham email account.
+  * Run a cron job to train against the Spam in the Spam email account.
+The script for the Spam can be something like:
+<code bash>
+/usr/bin/sa-learn -u <username> --spam /home/domain/<user>/Maildir/.<folder name>/cur/
+/usr/bin/find /home/domain/homes/<user>/Maildir/.<folder name>/cur/ -mtime+28 -exec rm {} \;
+</code>
+<WRAP warning>
+**WARNING:**  Do not have the <user> and <folder name> point to account of an actual user.
+This should instead point to the the email account that holds the spam.

+Have ham learning be done as:
+<code bash>
+/usr/bin/sa-learn -u <username> --ham /home/domain/<user>/Maildir/.<folder name>/cur/
