I have been seeing some issues with bayes detection from base64 strings
within attachments causing false positives.

Train more data then, bayes needs more data to prevent it

Example:
Oct  6 09:02:14.374 [15869] dbg: bayes: token 'H4f' => 0.999971186828264
Oct  6 09:02:14.374 [15869] dbg: bayes: token 'wx2' => 0.999968644662127
Oct  6 09:02:14.374 [15869] dbg: bayes: token 'z4f' => 0.999968502147581
Oct  6 09:02:14.378 [15869] dbg: bayes: token '0vf' => 0.999966604823748

Above is pretty normal for how bayes works

Is there a solution to prevent triggering bayes from the base64 data in an
attachment? It was my impression that attachments should not trigger bayes
data, but it seems that it is parsing it as text rather than an attachment.

Dokumentation is in

perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf
perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Bayes

If not dokumented its not supported

This is with SpamAssassin v3.3.

While 3.4 is now stable
