Hi Matt,
I stopped running spamd. 

The ALL_TRUSTED was letting a lot of junk get through and I saw a post that
recommended 0 for the score to prevent false negatives. I have restored it
to its original and added trusted networks (with a couple of subnets) as you
suggest.

I am still not seeing any BAYES scores. Here are a few examples:

That is very concerning. Why'd you do that? 99.9% of the time the proper fix
is to declare a trusted_networks. Disabling this rule merely covers up one
symptom of a very pervasive problem (errant trust).

Wait, why the mailscanner ignores? Are you using mailscanner? If so, stop
running spamd. MailScanner uses the perl API, so you don't need spamd, it's
just wasting memory to run it.
