[SAtalk] Bayes problem with MailScanner

[Jan-Peter Koopmann]

Hi,

I am still trying to figure out why MailScanner is not using Bayes at
the moment. Therefore I hacked the code a bit to write all SA debug
output to a log file even when being called by MailScanner. Here is an
interesting part:

using "/usr/local/share/spamassassin" for default rules dir
using "/usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir
using "/var/spool/exim.in/.spamassassin" for user state dir
using "/usr/local/MailScanner/etc/spam.assassin.prefs.conf" for user
prefs file
bayes: tie-ing to DB file R/O /var/spool/spamassassin/bayes_toks
bayes: tie-ing to DB file R/O /var/spool/spamassassin/bayes_seen
debug: Only 53 spam(s) in Bayes DB < 200

So the MailScanner/SA combination thinks it only has 53 spams. But now
have a look at this:

root at proxy:/usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin/work/Mail-SpamAssassin-2
.50/tools # ./check_bayes_db -db /var/spool/spamassassin/bayes
0.000        0        0        0  non-token data: db format = on-the-fly
probs, expiry, scan-counting
0.000        0      269        0  non-token data: nspam
0.000        0     2320        0  non-token data: nham
0.000        0        0        0  non-token data: ntokens
0.000        0        0        0  non-token data: oldest age
0.000        0      270        0  non-token data: current scan-count
0.000        0        0        0  non-token data: last expiry scan-count

Or this:

root at proxy:/tmp # spamassassin -t <
1047306210_0.78770.proxy.intern.akctech.de
debug: using "/usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir
debug: using "/root/.spamassassin" for user state dir
debug: using "/root/.spamassassin/user_prefs" for user prefs file
debug: bayes: tie-ing to DB file R/O /var/spool/spamassassin/bayes_toks
debug: bayes: tie-ing to DB file R/O /var/spool/spamassassin/bayes_seen
debug: Score set 3 chosen.
--- snipp ---
debug: bayes corpus size: nspam = 269, nham = 2320

And of course bayes is used by spamassassin -t....

I simply do not see the difference... both ways use the same database
obviously. Why does the SA/MS combination say 53 spams in the DB?

BTW: /var/spool/exim.in/.spamassassin and /root/.spamassassin are equal
so that sould not be it.
