Hi John, Looks like yo replied directly to me. I couldn't find your reply on the list yet? At any rate...
The Bayes DB has been learned and in effect for a long time - years before my time. No ID's have changed or the config that has caused this error. I add users to the whitelist - and use sa-learn - that's it. 1.

If you have kept your training corpus, you could delete the bayes database files entirely and start training over from scratch. > My users are getting the "nice girl emails and they are not scoring as I've > shown in my post - why? > They score with spamassassin debug but are not being stopped by SA in my > maillogs? That smells like a user ID problem. If the user ID that spamassassin/spamd is running under is different than the user ID you are running sa-learn under, the bayes databases are different - you're training a database that SA isn't looking at. Verify that you are training using the same user as the user spamassassin/spamd is running as to filter mail. > Can I provide more details? What does "sa-learn --dump magic" report? How are you filtering messages? spamc+spamd? What user is spamd running as? What user are you running sa-learn as?
