Others have given a lot of good things to check for. However, one more thing to
check for.

Check to see if any of your spam is matching the rule named ALL_TRUSTED. If it
is, you must manually declare a trusted_networks because the auto-detection
algorithm is getting confused.

See:
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TrustPath

(Note: The trust path problem exists in SA 2.6x as well, it's just less
noticeable. Usually in 2.6x the only side effect is FP's on dialup RBLs like
SORBS_DUL.)


Also, I'd consider grabbing the bayes rule scores from SA 3.0.3, or just upgrade
to 3.0.3 outright. 3.0.3 fixes some scoring issues in 3.0.2 and a few important
bugs that 3.0.2 suffers from in terms of accuracy (mostly URI parsing for 
URIBLs).

If you're reluctant to go to 3.0.3, the adjusted scores from 3.0.3's
50_scores.cf are as follows:

 score BAYES_60 0 0 3.515 1.0
 score BAYES_80 0 0 3.608 2.0
 score BAYES_95 0 0 3.514 3.0
 score BAYES_99 0 0 4.070 3.5
 score SPF_FAIL 0 0.001 0 0.875
