bayes_journal file size

[Steve Douglas]

Thank you.  Apparently I am not using bayes.  I looked through the
MailScanner Config file and the keyword bayes is nowhere to be found.
However, I do have SpamAssassin on my gateway.

I am using the following config:

Fprot 4.1.0
SpamAssassin 2.55
MS 4.21-9
SendMail
Perl

SD
:-)
