Here's how I use training with dovecot. It's hardly related to dovecot, but we've strayed this far, I thought I would attempt something that might become related again.
For comparison, I'm using SpamAssassin. I have lots of mbox folders, but for spam training I have two folders named Uncaught and FalsePositives. Any spam that SA doesn't flag gets dragged to Uncaught. Anything in the Spam folder (put there by a procmail filter because it has SA markup) that's not spam gets dragged to FalsePositives. I have a nightly cron job that runs sa-learn on the two folders. sa-learn knows which messages it's seen before so I don't have to do anything special to flag the new stuff.
In my crontab:
12 0 * * * /home/ken/bin/sa-learn-nightly
The script:
#!/bin/sh sa-learn --spam --mbox ~/mail/Spam/Uncaught sa-learn --ham --mbox ~/mail/Spam/FalsePositives
