Zeroing out spam folder.

[John Culleton]

I use bogofilter integrated with Kmail.

Every day my spam folder fills with properly trapped spam. Some of it 
is trapped by bogofilter, and some is caught by me manually. 

Once a week cron runs the following line:  
10 4 * * 1 /usr/local/bin/bogofilter -sv -B 
/home/safe/Mail/spam/cur>/dev/null

(It is really all one line.)

Now I am considering emptying out the spam folder and starting a new 
collection. But when bogofilter runs  again on Monday morning will I 
lose all the spam-finding benefits already accumulated from the 
formerly identified spam items I just deleted? In other words is 
emptying out the spam folder a safe action?
