A much much easier way to do this is as follows.

On your SA server install an IMAP server that supports shared folders 
(Cyrus is what I use). Create a shared folder called spam and make it 
world writeable.

Using your favourite mail client, subscribe to this IMAP folder and, 
when you get spam you want it to learn, copy or move the mail into this 
folder.

Grab this script: http://www.dmzs.com/tools/files/spam/DMZS-sa-learn.pl

Customise it for your environment then call it from cron every hour, or 
whatever interval you prefer.

Mart.
