I'm banging my head over this, but not seeming to find anything that
stands out to me.
Intermittently... rough estimate being around 1 in 5... I'm seeing
cases where an instance of SpamAssassin does not appear to use Bayes
against a message. I'm suspecting at the times that this is
happening, it's also having issues with network related
rules/functions, such as DNSBL checks. When I check a message
manually with `spamassassin -D`, Bayes seems to work properly, and in
some cases I get DNSBL responses that weren't present with the
original check.
This sounds like what happens *BY DESIGN* when you have
"shortcircuiting" configured. See 'perldoc
Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Shortcircuit' for details.
