My question about all this is, does spamassassin's Bayesian
component use per-user filter tables or a single global table?
As installed at EFN, that is.
Anyone interested in Bayesian spam filtering should read these
three papers -- they pretty much defined the field last year
when they came out.

I'll also put in a plug for the Bayesian spam filter that Anne and I
use at home. Since I installed it (3 weeks ago), I haven't seen a
single false positive on 200+ messages/day. And yes, I've been
checking, though I won't keep checking much longer.
