This is wrong. If you trained the spam using the user 'globaluser' then
your group definition should look like:

user:group-name:domain-to-which-all-users-belong, i.e. if users on your
system are 'user@24x7server.net' (that's the address that appears in
their mail). So your group should look like:

globaluser:classification:*24x7server.net.

If you've built dspam with debugging, you can easily check this by
running a Debug: globaluser (dspam.conf).
