is rumored to have said:

They receive wildly different BAYES scores.
* -1.9 BAYES_00 BODY: Bayes spam probability is 0 to 1%
*      [score: 0.0002]
*  2.2 BAYES_20 BODY: Bayes spam probability is 5 to 20%
*      [score: 0.0881]

This looks like you have per-user Bayes databases, and the messaage type has been trained differently in each.

Also, it looks like there are per-user rules, since BAYES_50 has a normal score of 0.2, and there is no reason BAYES_20 (indicating much less spammy) should have a score of 2.2.

Absolutely correct.

However, that does not prove definitively that there are per-user Bayes DBs & rules, just that the BAYES_20 score is insane. The difference between 8.81% and 00.02% isn't very meaningful. It isn't accidental that SA doesn't have finer categories of Bayes scores.
