Re: Rule updates are too old -- not if BAYES wasn't broken

I wonder if your Bayes database is correupt.  All the error below is saying is that it got a lock.  Run spamassassin -t -D 2>&1 on a test mbox file and send the output.

At worst, after an upgrade, one might have to save the DB and restore it, but that doesn't seem to work anymore, and since Bayes was more accurate than the rest of the tests combined, my spam rate has gone up by about 2-3x. re: dar...@chaosreigns.com wrote: SpamAssassin version 3.3.0 has not had a rule update since 2012-01-05.
