Glad you're unstuck! Note that it may *not* be there, though: when you
configured SpamBayes, you had to tell it about two folders, a spam folder
and an "uncertain" folder. As you continue training the system, it becomes
much less likely that a good email will wind up in the spam folder. The
uncertain folder is the other place to look. I get about 700 emails a day,
and look at my spam folder just once at the end of the day, or sometimes not
at all. I can't remember the last time I found a ham there. I look at my
uncertain folder several times per day, though. Unusual ham ends up there,
sometimes so unusual I can't tell whether it's ham or spam without more
effort than it's worth to figure out. Those I just throw away. The rest of
the unsures I train on.
