I guess I'm still confused a little here.  I'm not entirely sure I 
understand what a MailOK message is.  From my understanding, a mailOK msg is 
a non-spam message.  Something that has cleared the RBLs, any black/red 
lists/regexs, passed Bayesian tests, etc.

On the Wiki, Michael states: "...mailok messages are not necessarily ham, 
and are in-fact typically rated spam - otherwise they would be in the ham 
folder. Messages that are mailok have been isolated from the ham for a 
reason, but are intentionally not considered spam and should not add to the 
spam corpus."

Which confuses me even further.  If my understanding is correct, and mailok 
msgs have indeed cleared all spam tests, then why should they not be 
considered as ham?

Thanks!
