Hi,

Hello,
<SNIP>


Is this all correct?
Yes.  Set up expiration in a cron job, once per day is usually fine.

OK, will do - i assume "sa-learn --force-expire" is the command to run
via cron, right?

Yup! This is my crontab line:

00 22 * * * /usr/local/bin/sa-learn --force-expire


Also, how do i disable automatic expiration?

Set:

bayes_auto_expire          0

In your local.cf file.


Thanks again,
Richard.


Would a suitable alternative be to delete "bayes_seen" and "bayes_toks",
then restart spamd? I know i would be deleting everything that had been
learned over the last period of time, but starting afresh may not be a
bad thing, seeing as the rules in the database are probably 6 months to
a year old now (we've not been using spamd for a year or so, because i
broke it and had no time to fix it!).

Please let me know your thoughts, and also let me know whether deleting
both of those files is a good way to go.
No.
