One thing with spamassassin is that for bayes to be used it must have learned from at least 200 spam and 200 ham messages. (I think those numbers are correct). If you have not hit that threshold yet it will just use the standard rules. Also when you use sa-learn make sure you are storing the results in the same database when spamassassin is run normally. I have seen where this has happened. Check the config files and make sure they point to the same location. -- Response brought to you by AutoReponder 0.1 a product of Magic-8-ball productions.
