Does sa-learn actually say it is learning tokens from the messages?
Hmm. If I su to spamfilter and run sa-learn --dump magic, I do see reasonable
results.
If I then try to learn ham or spam, it tells me permission denied trying to
access the mail directory.
Yeah, that can happen. One way around this for smaller installations is to
define a "site-wide" bayes rather than per-user bayes. Another way is to
have root move messages from users' training mailboxes to training
mailboxes owned by (e.g.) spamfilter before running sa-learn.
Trying to learn spam or ham as root runs without complaint, but appears
to be saying 0 learned.
That's odd, if your dump shows no tokens are learned. That's expected if
sa-learn remembers that it's seen the messages before.
There is also a size limit on the messages it will scan, are the sample
messages unusually large?
