So this may be a real stupid question, but that's never stopped me before...

I've used Thunderbird since it came out and have been using its built in 
Junk filters. It does a pretty darn good job and I've been happy with it. I 
leave Thunderbird running on a computer full-time and it certainly makes 
life simpler on my mobile devices. The occasional spam that gets through 
Thunderbird to my inbox I simply move to the Junk folder. False positives at 
this point is basically nil.

If I subscribe to the Spam folder and change my settings in Thunderbird to 
use the Spam folder instead of the Junk folder, will this help train 
Surgemail system-wide or will it be localized to me? If it's just me, can I 
change settings so that it affects things system-wide?
