You have to enable it in the sa-mimedefang.cf file:

use_bayes 1
auto_learn 1
bayes_file_mode 0600
bayes_path /var/spool/MIMEDefang/bayes

Those are possible settings. Keep in mind that you need a valid basis of
SPAM and HAM mails so that auto-learning will take place. As well there
are thresholds and not each mail is auto-learned. That is not MimeDefang
specific but functionality by SpamAssassin.
