That did the trick! I just copied over the databases from one of the
good machines and right away it started doing the autolearn=spam.
Thanks for all your help.

Here's my auto-learn lines from the machine that doesn't work:

And here's my output from the machine that's learning OK:
debug: auto-learn: currently using scoreset 3, recomputing score based
on scoreset 1.
debug: auto-learn: message score: 25.916, computed score for
autolearn: 24.06
debug: auto-learn? ham=0.1, spam=10, body-points=16.82,
head-points=9.84, learned-points=0.001
debug: auto-learn? yes, spam (24.06 > 10)
debug: Learning Spam
What is this 'learned-points'? Is my database poisoned on the
affected machine?
I'm guessing here that the email is hitting BAYES_00 (which has a score
of -2.599 by default, and which is the "learned points"). SA now has
some code to ensure that emails that hit low BAYES scores will not be
autolearned as spam and emails that hit high BAYES scores will not be
autolearned as ham, no matter what they score otherwise. I'm assuming,
then, that all or most of your emails are hitting BAYES_00 to BAYES_40
only. This means that indeed your Bayes database is pooched.
The easiest solution is likely to just delete the database from this
machine and copy over the database from one of your other systems,
provided that they are handling similar types of emails.
