Will “training” spam filter improve the recognition rate of incoming spams?

0

Yes, BUT (a big but) it tends to increase the false positive rate, too. Many spams are reflected from well-behaved email domains and have generic contents. This renders natural-language-processing-based and sender-based training ineffective. The system rules are updated regularly and they seem quite balaced for most of the cases. We will stick to it, at least for the moment.
