I guess I should add that the host I want to do this on is a mail
gateway which gets between 25000 - 40000 emails per day [quad pentium
pro 200/ 1 gb ram].

I read in another thread that the Rebuild Bayes Every = x may also be
tied into the restart Mailscanner every x.

So my question is still what is the suggested setting for this [given
these conditions], and what are the benefits for leaving it disabled as
opposed to setting it?

Thanks again for your time.
