Hi Matt,

It was my typo, it was "--no-rebuild --spam".

I have done "spamassassin -D < a_spam_message", it told me:

debug: is spam? score=5.368 required=4.3 tests=ADDR....

I guess that SpamAssassin picked it up from Bayesian database. However, I sent 
a_spam_message from yahoo.com to my SpamAssassin box, the "hits" is only 1.6. 
Why?

Thank you.
ming

First question.. why did you use --rebuild and --spam at the same time?

Second question, what bayes score did it get?

Third question, is bayes even enabled or have you only trained a few emails 
(you must train 200 spam and 200 ham messages before bayes will run). You 
can check if bayes is in use by looking at the debug output:
         spamassassin -D < a_spam_message
