Hello,
I have recently installed spamassassin on my new ubuntu distribution
from the apt package. I seem to be having issues where emails that are
obviously spam are not being marked.
X-Spam-Status: No, score=0.0 required=5.0 tests=none autolearn=no
version=3.1.7-deb
Is in the headers of the email but the content of the email has URLs
which are in the blacklists, If I forward these emails to my ISP account
which has its own spam solution they get marked.
Here is the body of the email

Hello, share
>> Don't have time for a full time relationship?
Many young career minded people don't but still want a physical
relationship,
many of these need sexual encounters but without the frustrating
attachment of a boyfriend or girlfriend.
This means they have time to concentrate on their profession/career and
not worry about
what is going on at home, as essentially they are single.
This is commonly becoming known as a

I have removed the geocities URL so that it wont potentially be marked
by users of this lists spam protection.
By spamassassin configuration is fairly basic and it looks like this

I had previously being using the rules from saupdates.openprotect.com
but I have stopped using that service while I try and diagnose this
problem. With or without the rules I have exactly the same issues.
One line I am constantly seeing in the mail.log file is the following
Mar 28 09:09:34 poopey spamd[21715]: config: copying current conf from
backup
does that have any reference on the problem?
I also see the following
Mar 28 09:10:23 poopey spamd[21716]: bayes: not available for scanning,
only 5 spam(s) in bayes DB < 50
I find that a little strange as I have done an sa-learn for both ham and
spam emails on folders which I have moved all the spam messages to.
Any advice on resolving or how to diagnose these problems would be
greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Jimmy.
