You probably shouldn't be doing that.

The proper way to use SpamSieve on multiple Macs is outlined in SpamSieve's user guide in section 3.14, here:-

Option 1 and 2 are the best, and I strongly recommend 2, the drone setup, in which one Mac runs SpamSieve and MailMate all the time, and the others run only MailMate, and you have special mailboxes and rules set up for training the spam filter. See the above link and the link at

	<https://c-command.com/spamsieve/manual#setting-up-a-spam-filte>

for detailed instructions.

I do this on my systems and it works flawlessly.
