Yep, that's what you need if you're sharing a single bayes DB amongst
all your users. They all need to be able to write it.

I'm using a shared bayes db, and users do not have permissiosn on the

on our mailcluster we have spamassassin running with bayes turned on, but
auto learning turned off, we then hand train the bayesdb and push it out to

However weven with bayes_auto_learn turned off, spamd is still creating the

First, I assume you're using a bayes_path statement to force the bayes DB

Yep!
If so, DO NOT proceed..
In order for your bayes DB to be wide open, ALL users must have r_x access
