That's an awfully large database for that number of e-mails. Have you put any bayes_* options in your sa-mimedefang.cf file which override the defaults for bayes expiry, database size, etc.? Note that there's no advantage to letting your bayes database grow without bound; it'll end up populated primarily by single-occurrence tokens that never show up again. My bayes system has processed substantially more messages than yours, but the dabase files only make up around 25 MB, with the tokens file comprising only 5 MB of that. If you *haven't* changed any of the defaults, you may have run into a bug in the SA 2.6x expiry system which resulted in no tokens ever being expired. Do you have SA 2.6x installed anywhere, or another system you can install it on to do the processing? Try (using the 2.6x version) "sa-learn -D --force-expire" and see if the expiry actually works. Getting the database files down to a more reasonable size will make the conversion to SA 3.x bayes much smoother. Once you've got a reasonable set of db files you should just be able to transfer them to the appropriate location for SA 3.x and issue a "sa-learn --sync" to convert. ---- Nels Lindquist <*> Information Systems Manager Morningstar Air Express Inc. _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.roaringpenguin.com MIMEDefang mailing list [email protected] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
