The problem is finding out which directory the running spamassassin

I put this in my /etc/spamassassin/local.cf:

bayes_file_mode 0777
It's heartwarming (in a sense) to see that there are people so confident
in the absolute security of their systems that they are happy to let any
process on a server write to files that other processes are supposed to
trust.
For folks who don't actually have that sort of confidence, it is
generally a better approach to figure out the set of users who actually
require read and/or write access to the Bayes DB and use ownership,
groups, ACLs, su, sudo or whatever you might need to get rid of that
third 7.
