Debugging Spamassassin

Hi,

Running "spamassassin -D --lint", one of the output lines looks like this:
debug: bayes corpus size: nspam = 14120, nham = 20635
What does "corpus" mean? is nspam means number of spam detected by SA so far?
Or, spam learned so far?

Finally, can I safely delete *.db files in my /var/spool/spamassassin?
The time stamp on those files never changed for 2 months:

-rw-------    1 root     root     134324224 Feb 10 00:17 auto-whitelist.db
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       103570 Apr 29 09:06 bayes_journal
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          361 Apr 29 09:06 bayes_msgcount
-rw-------    1 root     root      2613248 Apr 29 09:06 bayes_seen
-rw-------    1 root     root       327680 Feb 25 08:28 bayes_seen.db
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      3895296 Apr 29 09:06 bayes_toks
-rw-------    1 root     root      8720384 Feb 25 08:28 bayes_toks.db
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1218 Apr 27 18:45 user_prefs

I believe that I moved them from /root/.spamassassin when I created
/var/spool/spamassassin. (I probably shouldn't have)

Thanks,
Marco
