I seem to be catching a lot more SPAM, but no matter what I try, it seems Bayes isn't getting
utilized. I have ~700 SPAMS and 2400 HAMS. When I run "spamassassin -D --lint" (as the
same user Postfix is running spamc as), it comes back with a report that seems to utilize Bayes,
but when normal e-mail flows through, I don't see any indication of Bayes in the headers. Also,
when I run "sa-learn --dump magic" (as user spamd), I can see that nspam and nham are
correct. I've also tried setting bayes_path, but still no Bayes in the headers. Any idea what could
be wrong? Here is a most recent header:

rejecting me!)
So...
1) The Bayes DB for spamd has enough ham and spam to be used
2) Incoming email does not get a Bayes result
This means that the SA process scanning your mail is NOT using the same
database you are querying. The most common cause of this is running
sa-learn as the wrong user. Are you 100% sure spamd is running as the
spamd user? It may also be possible for config options or run-time
flags to affect which database is being used. Double-check your config
and the options you are passing to spamd.
