    Do you even need that? Each message can be found on the
      filesystem already in format directly understandable by sa-learn.
      I have the following cron-job running on my server as the cyrus-user:
    
      find /var/spool/imap/user/*/spam*/ -type f -name '[0-9]*.'
          | xargs sa-learn --quiet --spam
    
    As you can see, it is not even IMAP-aware. You may need it to be,
      if it needs to run on a machine separate from Cyrus-server --
      because that's where your incoming mail is being filtered.
    But even in that case, it would be faster to run the learning on
      the Cyrus-system -- dealing with local files is always faster,
      than going for the same files via IMAP -- and then copy the
      updated database over to the incoming-mail server.
