Hello,
We have two incoming email servers for our organization. We are running
spamassassin in these servers (debian sarge + postfix 2.1.5 +
spamassassin 3.1.0a). To syncronize spamassassin's database and journal
we copy the /var/lib/amavis/.spamassassin of one server (let's call it
the master server) in the other (and run the sa-learn --sync, the slave
server). We also do all the learn operations in the master server.
With this I thought that these two servers should behave the same way,
but I am observing that they scored different the same messages. For
example, for one message the master server returns for the command spamc
-d <master>:
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.0 (2005-09-13) on
xenon1.telemat.um.es
X-Spam-Level: ***
X-Spam-Status: No, score=3.1 required=5.0
tests=BAYES_60,EXTRA_MPART_TYPE,
HTML_00_10,HTML_MESSAGE,HTML_TAG_BALANCE_BODY,UPPERCASE_25_50
autolearn=disabled version=3.1.0
and the slave:
X-Spam-Flag: YES
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.0 (2005-09-13) on
xenon2.telemat.um.es
X-Spam-Level: *****
X-Spam-Status: Yes, score=5.1 required=5.0
tests=BAYES_80,EXTRA_MPART_TYPE,
HTML_00_10,HTML_MESSAGE,HTML_TAG_BALANCE_BODY,UPPERCASE_25_50
autolearn=disabled version=3.1.0
X-Spam-Report:
* 1.1 EXTRA_MPART_TYPE Header has extraneous
Content-type:...type= entry
* 0.2 HTML_TAG_BALANCE_BODY BODY: HTML has unbalanced "body"
tags
* 3.0 BAYES_80 BODY: Bayesian spam probability is 80 to 95%
* [score: 0.9259]
* 0.8 HTML_00_10 BODY: Message is 0% to 10% HTML
* 0.0 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message
* 0.0 UPPERCASE_25_50 message body is 25-50% uppercase
so one of them classified it as spam and the other not. The only
difference I've found is that the master hit the BAYES_60 and the slave
the BAYES_80.
Why this different score? am I synchronizing my servers the right way?
Thanks in advance.
