Michael,
For me, the
quickest way to get Bayes going is with auto_learn. (NOTE: you have to
have your other rules working pretty well for this to be effective.) I
use:
bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam
0.0
bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam
12.0
bayes_auto_learn
1
Emails
scoring below zero (mostly outbound or whitelisted mail) are learned as
ham; emails scoring over 12 are learned as spam. On our gateway (10,000
messages per day) I can re-train Bayes from scratch in an hour or so. Then
I feed it any false negatives to learn as spam, and any false positives
with high Bayes scores as ham. The latter case is pretty
rare.
I never feed
large batches to sa-learn, and since I'm running SA under MailScanner the Bayes
rebuilds are automatic.
Good
luck

and eveyrthing is working fast like before. What
is the best way to feed the bayes with spam considering that there is no mail
kept at the server? All users download their mail and thats it. The
spamassassin is marking spams over 5.0 but when it wants
to autolearn it says failed(I assume that because the rest of the time
it says autolearn=no). Now i know that bayes has 0 in its database and i
want to feed it with some spam so it can start
learning. Please sugest some ways to feed spam into
bayes.( do i have to prepare it somehow?)

I'd run "sa-learn
--force-expire" and see if that helps the speed a
bit.
The whole thing is that yesterday i did
sa-learn spam with spam folder and today the server is runing very slowely
now. Emails from to local users take about 3 hours to deliver. I`m runing
RH 9.2 with postfix and spamassassin 3.0.4. I know i can kill processes
but every time i try to kill spamd its still there. Then when i try
service spamd stop it gives me a msg that INET socket is already running.
I thought if i stop spamassassin competly from running maybe the mail will
work fast again. I have only about 20 email account on the server and 20
domain aliases so there is not too much traffic at all. I have non stop
stuff coming tom y server for the accounts that are not here and i know
this is slowing it down a bit but at this time is runnng very
poorly.

That might be a little overkill though it does
the job ;-)
Stopping running things on *nix platforms
is generally done by killing them, along with their children. "man
kill" will teach you how. Programs that start when during boot usually
have special scripts to both start and stop them, your best option is to
use them. Where they live depends on your platform and distribution, use
the supplied documentation, the man command and google to find out
exactly where. If you don't want it to run at all at bootup, disable the
script (various ways of doing that).
Kind Regards,
Sander Holthaus
PS: Never turn on things for which you don't
know how to turn them off.
Unplug the power to the
server.
If that fails, I assume you would need to
contact the person that set it up. You sysadmin could allow all your
email to come thru without being scanned.
I hope that helps,
Thinking of you,
