------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-11-14 00:43 ------- I have just had to try to tidy up after having found "bayes_seen" files of nearly three gigabytes tucked away under ".spamassassin" on our campus inbound mail relays filling up our disks. (Our other monitoring caught this before 100%.) I was about to enquire whether we might have an installation problem, but then found this bug report already open. So this is an agreement with #1 from Matt that this is a residual untidyness in an otherwise professional product, that could do with some sort of addressing. I can see that there are discussions about how best to code it. But meanwhile the problem persists. So in the interim could I suggest an FAQ that acknowledges the problem and gives some sort of workaround/fudge, even if that is as simple (even if suboptimal) as removing "bayes_seen". (Can this be safely done without needing to restart SA, MailScanner, etc?) Or perhaps an automatically installed cron job that removes it if it exceeds a certain size. (Obviously a proper solution in the next release would be ideal. But if that is not possible, then some sort of FAQ/known-issue and/or fudge/workaround.) Hope that helps. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
