So far I never worried about it/asked myself, I just blacklisted spam and had it deleted.
What's the difference between marking mail as spam vs blacklist?
Meaning to say, what happens if I mark mail as spam?
Either way they are deleted, but are domains from spam marked mails end up in some blocklist or so?
Thanks.

Re: Spam vs Blacklist (?)
Thanks for the bump streodoc, I missed seeing this post initially.
Blacklist, works solely off the sending email address.
Marking as Spam/Good, breaks the message up into parts, sender, subject, content etc..
These parts get assigned a value depending how often they appear in your good/bad emails you train. Future messages get broken into parts and those are checked against the stored lists, so an email with lots of bad parts will make MailWasher think the email is spam.
