Your biggest problem is you are running 3.0.x. In the fast paced world of spam abatement this version is not going to make you happy. I don't think you have a major problem with Bayes so much as you need to upgrade SA. Doing so may add new rules that will help push more spam over the kill_level. What OS are you running?
