Two issues with Bayes; 1) It never rebuilds, 2) Too many expired_tokens

I'm seeing two issue;



On server 7 I have bayes set to the following option in MailScanner.conf;



# If you are using the Bayesian statistics engine on a busy server,

# you may well need to force a Bayesian database rebuild and expiry

# at regular intervals. This is measures in seconds.

# 1 day = 86400 seconds.

# To disable this feature set this to 0.

Rebuild Bayes Every = 86400



Yet after two month, I have not seen bayes Rebuild. There are ZERO
token_expires in the directory.



On Server 5 the token_expires never get removed. We have at least 500
token_expires in the .spamassassin directory. When do they expire? They are
taking up huge amounts of disk space.
