>From tha man pages..settings in local.cf bayes_auto_learn ( 0 | 1 ) (default: 1) bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam n.nn (default: 0.1) bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam n.nn (default: 12.0) Now this assumes that you have write access to the bayes DB files and directory. When you editted the local.cf did you restart spamd/amavis-new/MailScanner or whatever you use? A trick is use "spamassassin -D --lint message" as well so you can see a little more clearly whats (not) happening. -- martin On Tue, 11 Jan 2005 22:35:10 -0600, Eric F Crist <ecrist@secure-computing.net> wrote: > Hello list, > > Here's a question for anyone familiar with SpamAssassin.
