My questions wasn't referring to the actual Spam folder. I was referring to that "SpamReporting" folder you mentioned.
With respect to the actual Spam folder, I agree you should never set that folder's
Spam learning to
spam since that may falsely mark a message as spam if you don't intercept it before
Spam learning's daily check. Not setting
Spam learning (as recommended) gives you the opportunity to mark messages as not spam since stuff is learned as spam in the Spam folder only when you explicitly delete those items from the Spam folder. I believe this is why it's done that way.
I guess this reasoning could be applied to other folders too (e.g., that "SpamReporting" folder) but I assumed you only put stuff in there that you knew was actually known to be spam.
