A probability of -1.0000 is nothing else then DSP_UNCALCULATED which is the 
initial value when DSPAM is initializing the DSPAM context. The funny thing is 
that the confidence in your case is not 0.0000, which would be the inital value 
for the confidence when initializing DSPAM context. So something at least is 
done by DSPAM but it is not finished. Is it possible for you to post the result 
of "dspam --version"? And if possible attach dspam.conf and your main.cf and 
master.cf? You can/should mask passwords in those files, because I don't need 
them. And if possible: Could you turn on debugging in DSPAM and post some 
additional log entries while DSPAM is processing messages?

This just means that you got a certain amount of mails from [email protected] sent 
to [email protected] which where not SPAM and DSPAM whitelisted [email protected].

Don't import corpi if you don't mind doing some initial training in the 
beginning. It is always better to do it without corpus feed.
