Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but noone has responded to my question -

If Bayes is working properly, am I supposed to have a Bayes_ entry in the
X-Spam_Status header info for every email?
In 3.x, I think you should, but I can't speak with any authority here.

In 2.6x, definitely not. Anything which is at the 50/50 mark won't show any
bayes hits at all for 2.6x users.


I think that's the way it used to be - Bayes_00 - Bayes_99 etc. Lately it seems that only the spam emails
have those entries.

Hmm, that's a little odd. You might try hand running some of the messages
through spamassassin -D and see if the debug gives you any clues.


Here's my headers - SA 3.0.3 on Debian

X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.0.3 (2005-04-27) on Luke.wa9als.com
X-Spam-Level:
X-Spam-Status: No, score=0.0 required=5.0 tests=HTML_90_100,HTML_MESSAGE
autolearn=no version=3.0.3

Perl is 5.8.4 on Debian Stable (Sarge)

spamassassin --lint is OK; Bayes is turned on in local.cf and no recent changes to that file.

A week or so ago I ran spamassassin -D, and the interesting thing I saw was that the "Bayes test" (I don't know the specifics of this) worked fine and came up with a percentage score.

All my caught spam has Bayes headers with high scores, but none of the ham has any Bayes entries.

Other thoughts?  Tnx - John
