[AMaViS-user] Amavis Database Question

[BJ D. <wdi...@5d...>]

Hello list,

I am not very familiar with amavisd-new, and I set it up almost a  
year ago so I'm rusty on everything.  Anyways, my main question/ 
concern is this:  I am currently maintaining a very small mail  
server... maybe 5 users max.  However, I noticed the other day that  
the 'msg' table in the amavis mysql db has 1.2 *million* messages all  
marked spam.  Does amavis/spamassassin keep all spam messages in the  
database for reference when scanning new mail?  Or am I missing a  
maintenance script or something that should be deleting old messages,  
etc.  I'm attempting to redo my entire mail server and will be  
studying amavis/spamassassin/clamav a bit closer this time...  but  
any help is appreciated.
