I'm running amavisd-new with spamassassin and setup bayes and mysql earlier
today. It seems to connect to the db fine with user vscan when running
spamassassin -d. I ran sa-learn --spam/ham < spam.txt (full email headers
too) a few times and those are the only entires in the db, the ones that I
added, all other email is untouched. What's the deal? Here is my local.cf
file... awl seems to work fine, but it scores mail funky sometimes.
# Enable the Bayes system
use_bayes 1
bayes_store_module Mail::SpamAssassin::BayesStore::SQL
bayes_sql_dsn DBI:mysql:bayes
bayes_sql_username vscan
bayes_sql_password vscan
bayes_sql_override_username vscan
# Enable awl
auto_whitelist_factory Mail::SpamAssassin::SQLBasedAddrList
user_awl_dsn DBI:mysql:bayes
user_awl_sql_username vscan
user_awl_sql_password vscan

You probably ran the commands as root, so you are only looking at root's
data. Add this in local.cf:
bayes_sql_override_username vscan
That way everyone will see the same data (site wide configuration). You want
to always run spamassassin and sa-learn commands as the vscan user but
adding this seting means that even if you learn spam or ham as root, vscan's
data will be updated.
su vscan -c 'sa-learn --spam < spam.txt'
