I run spamassassin on my mail server from milter-spam
(http://www.snertsoft.com/sendmail/milter-spamc/). One mail server is
no longer sufficient for both reliability and load so I'm building 2
identical mail servers (two mx mailers).
aside from the issues of trying to COMBINE the bayes databases.. there
is also the issues of mx1 and mx2 (different weights) seeing a different
world.
many spammers go right for the highest weight mx record only.
mx1 will see more legit email, and mx2 will see more spam. mx2 will
start to 'hate' everyone!
I Don't think an hourly cron job would be needed, mostly nightly, and
copy the mx1 bayes to mx2.
idealy, you could use a clustered set of servers, (clustering is NOT
replication) with in RAM db.
I don't think bayes and awl are that critical to go to that much trouble.
