That's the thing -- Linux/UNIX are systems, not "things to learn". You need to learn how to solve problems in it, not just "learn x" then "learn y" then "learn z". This is because they're sets of smaller tools to be used together, not a short list of big premade things.
So it's not so much "learn Linux" as much as "learn to solve problems using these tools together", as well as "learn to administrate Apache and MySQL and whatever other services are installed/running".
How long it takes to get a grip with that can depend, it's a very different model than Windows.

mail::spamassassin::plugin::autolearnthreshold
Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::AutoLearnThreshold(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::AutoLearnThreshold(3)
NAME
Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::AutoLearnThreshold - threshold-based discriminator for Bayes auto-learning
SYNOPSIS
loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::AutoLearnThreshold
DESCRIPTION
This plugin implements the threshold-based auto-learning discriminator for SpamAssassin's Bayes subsystem. Auto-learning is a mechanism
whereby high-scoring mails (or low-scoring mails, for non-spam) are fed into its learning systems without user intervention, during
scanning.
Note that certain tests are ignored when determining whether a message should be trained upon:
o rules with tflags set to 'learn' (the Bayesian rules)
o rules with tflags set to 'userconf' (user configuration)
o rules with tflags set to 'noautolearn'
Also note that auto-learning occurs using scores from either scoreset 0 or 1, depending on what scoreset is used during message check. It
is likely that the message check and auto-learn scores will be different.
USER OPTIONS
The following configuration settings are used to control auto-learning:
bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam n.nn (default: 0.1)
The score threshold below which a mail has to score, to be fed into SpamAssassin's learning systems automatically as a non-spam
message.
bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam n.nn (default: 12.0)
The score threshold above which a mail has to score, to be fed into SpamAssassin's learning systems automatically as a spam message.
Note: SpamAssassin requires at least 3 points from the header, and 3 points from the body to auto-learn as spam. Therefore, the
minimum working value for this option is 6.
