You can also adjust the threshold at which SA will autolearn the message
as spam (but there is a caveat, see below).  From the
Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf man page (reformatted):

       bayes_auto_learn ( 0 | 1 )      (default: 1)
           Whether SpamAssassin should automatically feed high-scoring
           mails (or low-scoring mails, for non-spam) into its learn?
           ing systems.  The only learning system supported currently is
           a naive-Bayesian-style classifier.
           
           Note that certain tests are ignored when determining whether
           a message should be trained upon:
            - auto-whitelist (AWL)
            - rules with tflags set to 'learn' (the Bayesian rules)
            - rules with tflags set to 'userconf' (user
              white/black-listing rules, etc)
           
           Also note that auto-training occurs using scores from either
           scoreset 0 or 1, depending on what scoreset is used dur? ing
           message check.  It is likely that the message check and
           auto-train scores will be different.

       bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam n.nn (default: 0.1)
           The score threshold below which a mail has to score, to be
           fed into SpamAssassin's learning systems automatically as a
           non-spam message.

       bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam n.nn    (default: 12.0)
           The score threshold above which a mail has to score, to be
           fed into SpamAssassin's learning systems automatically as a
           spam message.
           
           Note: SpamAssassin requires at least 3 points from the
           header, and 3 points from the body to auto-learn as spam.
           Therefore, the minimum working value for this option is 6.
