The path seems wrong to me. Are you running spamd as it's own user? If so, that user needs access to the bayes files. The bayes_path setting is somewhat misnamed - /root/.spamassassin/bayes means that the path is /root/.spamassassin, and the files in the path begin with bayes (/root/.spamassassin/bayes_toks, for example) The user that spamd runs as needs access to the files marked by bayes_path Try something like this mkdir /var/bayes chmod 777 /var/bayes in local.cf: bayes_path /var/bayes/bayes then restart spamd This should allow any user to modify the bayes tokens. If you want to restrict it to just spamd, change the permissions accordingly. I ran into this issue using MIMEDefang (which runs as a "defang" user) not being able to read files in root's home directory.
