If this is a new install, you won't feel much of a difference. Bayes however is an extremely powerful tool once it is trained. Bayes "learns" what your ham and spam emails look like, and then through the magic of statistics, it classifies incoming messages as spam or ham based on your history. I would personally recommend not disabling it - but do take the time to train it. (note training takes a minumum of 200 spams and 200 hams - although to maximize effectivness you will want to use up to 5000 of each. If you don't have that many, don't worry, Bayes will also auto learn....)
