    Hi, I’m using Akismet mainly for comment spam. It catches most spam well, but I want to understand one thing.

    If I mark a real comment as “Not Spam,” does Akismet learn from that for future comments too?

    Yes! When you mark a comment as “Not Spam,” Akismet learns from that correction. It sends that feedback to Akismet’s servers, which helps improve the spam detection models, not just for your site, but across the entire Akismet network. So the more you correct false positives (and report missed spam), the smarter Akismet gets for everyone.
