Jules,

Like some of the other SA settings (value for low/high spam) the expire settings for low/high spam are very site specific. As 
Raymond tried to explain: e-mail body's are analysed by automated tools. This usually leadd to some url's being added to a URIBL. 
The URIBL will be updated once every couple of minutes. After that -the same message body- would be tagged higher by SA ..... I 
suppose the same is valid for bayes. If the same message passes the filter more often, it should get a higher bayes value.

So, having a lower expire timeout on lowspam messages can be 'required' for some setups. But other, who use less dynamic SA lists 
probably could cope with a higher value ...

bye,
Chris
