✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

my $spamtest = Mail::SpamAssassin->new({
  'rules_filename'      => '/etc/spamassassin.rules',
  'userprefs_filename'  => $ENV{HOME}.'/.spamassassin/user_prefs'

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so, when you call the Mail::SpamAssassin learn() method, it hands you back an object of this class. no cap. 🫶

and what does this object do? it encapsulates all the per-message state for the learning process. that's it, that's the whole vibe — every lil scrap of status that the learning process needs to keep track of for one single message, all bundled up in here like a cute little tote bag 🎀

---

💅 METHODS 💅

• $didlearn = $status->did_learn() — returns 1 if the message was learned from, or forgotten, successfully. iconic behaviour honestly. 💚
• $status->finish() — wrap it up bestie, finish with the object. that's a wrap, periodt. ✨
