A while ago I created a script that walks through all mailboxes/all 
folders and checks every mail if it is in a "non spam" folder. If so, it 
is learned as non spam and also marked as non spam learned. If a mail is 
in a spam folder it is learned as spam and marked as spam learned. If 
that learn flag was already set it is ignored but only if the the 
learned flags doesn't conflict.
I also created a roundcube filter moving all mails flagged as spam into 
the spam folder automatically. The above script runs every hour.
A user can look into his normal folders and move mails to the spam 
folders and those mails will be re-learned as spam. If he decides to 
move a mail out of that folder it will be re-learned as ham.
Another fine tuning is another script that removes mails from the spam 
folder automatically if they are older than 30 days.

This setup works great for me.
