If SpamBayes identifies a message correctly then it is fine to delete it. After a message is identified, SpamBayes only uses the message if you need to train an unsure or incorrect identification. It is also safe to delete any messages that you have already trained on using the “Delete as Spam” and “Recover from Spam” buttons. All the information that SpamBayes needs to know about trained messages is stored in a separate file. The information in the non-Outlook version of this question also applies, and may be of interest.
