Nigel Ideally this would be on the mailscanner list...
There's a couple of ways MailScanner can expire the bayes tokens down, and which one works for you seems to be hit and miss from my experience.. 1st method is to use the 'internal' MailScanner method. In MailScanner.conf, make sure Rebuild Bayes Every = 86400 Wait During Bayes Rebuild = yes If you've already got this and things are *not* clearing down then you'll have to use the 'standard' spamassassin way of doing this. Run "sa-learn --force-expire" via a cron job every day. NB if your MailScanner is running as non-root (eg postfix, mailnull) then make sure the cron job runs as this user otherwise the bayes file permissions can get set incorrectly. -- Martin Hepworth Snr Systems Administrator Solid State Logic Tel: +44 (0)1865 842300 > -----Original Message----- > From: nigel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 19 January 2007 09:26 > To: users@spamassassin.apache.org > Subject: Runing out of Disk Space > > > hi everyone, i'm pretty new to SpamAssassin.
