OK, I understand that now and I think that is a great way to
go for 
training the system with the spams received.

The problem I can see with this method is a 'good' mail was
caught and 
labelled as spam as well.  When I select Non-Spam for that
mail then it 
gets sent *AGAIN* to the user's mailbox even though they
have already 
received it earlier.  They now have a second copy of the
mail.

Perhaps if the configuration is setup to label spams rather
than 
quarantine you shouldn't send the mail on to the user but
just passing 
it to SA for learning as a good mail?
