Bad, bad idea to have individuals drive the training.  We tried it for a couple 
of months several years ago and it was a disaster.  People will mark email as 
spam instead of removing their names from legitimate mailing lists.  They will 
also mark valid emails from people they just do not want to hear from any more 
as spam.

We ended up having to completely wipe the db and start over with a few select, 
trained employees feeding the db and now we get very few FPs.
