Hello,
I have a new server where I installed Spamassassin. Next, I took a
maildir with a lot of spam and learned the filter:
sa-learn --spam --showdots /path/to/maildir
As I understand it, this creates a bayes database in my home directory
under .spamassassin
Now, I added the line
bayes_path /path/to/.spamassassin
I think that should be:
bayes_path /path/to/.spamassassin/bayes
and the bayes dir should contain your bayes_journal, bayes_seen and
bayes_toks files.
Oops - see John's reply - it's not a 'bayes' directory, but a prefix to
the bayes_* files in /path/to/.spamassassin. Sorry, my mistake.
Keep training Bayes with a good selection of spam and ham. My Bayes is
99% effective at catching spam with less than 1% falling in the middle
as uncategorised.
