Leigh you have a large boatload of spam trained as ham. Make sure your
users realize that GOOD messages train as ham and BAD messages train as
spam. It appears at least one person has been feeding them both to the
ham training.

1) Bayes is still in training. I've only recently given everybody the opportunity to feed it spam. I expect it to get better soon. My question was more related to why this stuff is getting through now, when it used to get blocked.

2) I'll look into upgrading. I installed the current version using yum, and a check-update on spamassassin gives me an enormous list of dependencies which scares me a bit, quite frankly.

Hi All,
After 6 months or more of perfect operation, I have had heaps of spam
has been missed over the last few weeks. Running SA with -D option
shows nothing obvious in the logs.
A small selection of misses is posted here:

Anybody got any ideas why really obvious stuff might be getting
through? Some of it is stuff which always used to get tagged, but now
isn't. There's been no changes on the server, except for an increase
in the number of mail users.
I also note that quite a lot of it is getting negative sscores.

1) all of this spam is hitting BAYES_00.. you really should check your
bayes training and correct it.

2) You're running a relatively old version of SpamAssassin. Version
3.0.3 has multiple security vulnerabilities.
