  It did use per-user rule sets, and ran the training (a shell wrapper
around "sa-learn" IIRC) on a per-user basis as well.  The general idea
was to give people the power of a Baysean SpamAssassin without the
need to know anything about Unix commands or the shell, or even a web
UI.  The only "UI" was the same mail program (IMAP client) the user
had been using all along.
