Here is a bash script created from the comments against this bug. I have tested it on our system and it appears to work OK. Feel free to contribute and enhance! Full credit for this script is due to bobby@zimbra.com and dmangot@terracottatech.com who wrote the bits which I just pasted together!

#!/bin/bash

wikiuser=`zmprov getConfig zimbraNotebookAccount | cut -d ' ' -f 2`;
hamuser=`zmprov getConfig zimbraSpamIsNotSpamAccount | cut -d ' ' -f 2`;
spamuser=`zmprov getConfig zimbraSpamIsSpamAccount | cut -d ' ' -f 2`;

users=`zmprov getAllAccounts | grep -v -e $wikiuser -e $hamuser -e $spamuser`;

for zuser in $users
do
echo "Train spam for $zuser"
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmtrainsa $zuser spam junk
done

echo "Zimbra spam training complete"

To install, save the above script as 'learnmorespam.sh', copy to /opt/zimbra/learnmorespam.sh on your Zimbra server. Set ownership and make executable:

[root@mail ~]# chmod +x /opt/zimbra/learnmorespam.sh
[root@mail ~]# chown zimbra:zimbra /opt/zimbra/learnmorespam.sh

And then create this crontab entry, /etc/crontab

#Learn more spam 6am daily
0 6 * * * zimbra /opt/zimbra/learnmorespam.sh > /dev/null 2>&1

That should be it :)
