Might want to add a delay on that or only match messages that have been
Seen, otherwise it'll classify mail that hasn't been read yet. Maybe..

find /home/*/Maildir/*/ -type d -name cur | while read cur; do
	foldername=`dirname "$cur"`

	find "$cur" -type f -name '*,*S*' | while read file; do
		if [ x"$foldername" = x"_SPAM" ]; then
			sa-learn --spam "$file"
		else
			sa-learn --ham "$file"
		fi
	done
done

On second thought, you probably don't want to feed sa-learn every
message, every day - just the new ones, right?  ..
