Yes, 0770 is set in /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf:

bayes_file_mode 0770

I've changed it to +s yesterday when i read in a thread in this list (or 
in the mailwatch-list) about someone having the same problem.

Anyway, i've changed /var/spool/MailScanner/spamassassin/ back to 0660 
now. As it was before.

There were one difference in my config.

my Incoming Work Permissions was set to 0600, and not 0660. Could this 
been causing the problem? I've changed it now and will see if it helps.
