[SLUG] spamassassin vs pine

I put Spamassassin on my machine to deal with the spam issue (which is not
severe, by "abuse@" standards, but still), and it doesn't seem to be getting
beter. Correction, the two-week average of "% spams caught" has gone from
38% two weeks ago to 44% now. There have been no false positives, for which
I'm grateful, but I'd put up with a few false positives for a better kill
rate. I got fed up with it, so I made a spreadsheet to see _how bad_ it
was. It's at http://24.94.123.65:81/spam.xls . I've fed every missed spam
to it by "| sa-learn --spam" from pine. What am I doing wrong? Shouldn't
it be improving?
