i set my local.cf to use MySQL as a bayes store and it seems to work fine
setting ham and spam in the database when a message is flagged. however it has

i originally installed spamassassin according to this guide
http://forums.sentora.org/showthread.php?tid=1118 and it does indeed filter
the test message so it should be working ok?
spamassassin detects and marks mail, it does not deliver it.
the MDA (mail delivery agent) delivers the mail.
you need to configure your MDA (procmail, maildrop, sieve etc) to deliver
mail marked as spam to Junk folder.
Or, if it is sufficient, he could have his MUA sort incoming marked as spam into
his local spam bucket for examination before disposal. I make that easy by
telling SA I want a header that looks like this: "*****SPAM***** 009.1 ** You
have 3 missed Nigerian Spam Pill Adds". Sorting incoming based on the
"*****SPAM*****" part is rather easy.
