"spamd" will not run as root. If you try it, it will switch to
"nobody".
You can deal with this two ways:
If your mail accounts are owned by real users on the system, you can let
SA run as the user you are delivering to. In this case, you must make
sure that all of your users have read/write access to the Bayes files.
If all of your mail accounts are owned by a single user, you can tell
spamd which user to run as and set the ownership of the Bayes files to
that user. If you are calling "spamassassin" directly, you will need to
switch to the correct user yourself and then run it. For spamd, it
looks like this:
spamd -u mailacct
