[AMaViS-user] sa-learn problems with amavisd-new

[Thomas N. <th...@te...>]

Hi all

I have postfix, courier-imap, amavisd-new and spamassassin running.

I have set up a share maildirectory for ham and spam. As far as I can 
tell sa-learn is reading the mails and learning from them. However I 
have a few issues - at least I think I do.

sa-learn is running as user "vscan", with default directory /var/amavis/

when i run sa-learn as user "vscan" I can see the following files 
"changing" after every run

/var/amavis/.spamassassin_seen
/var/amavis/.spamassassin_toks

In my local.cf file I have specified the default path for bayes.db as 
/var/amavis/.spamassassin/

in the directory /var/amavis/.spamassassin/ I find the files

/var/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes_journal
/var/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes_seen
/var/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes_toks

but they do not seem to change when I run sa-learn as user "vscan"..as 
far as I can tell they have not changed since I stopped running sa-learn 
as root...and yes the files are owned by user "vscan"...from the debug 
output everything seems to be fine. It worries me that the files

bayes_journal
bayes_seen
bayes_toks

do not seem to change. And that they do not exist in the same directory 
as the files /var/amavis/.spamassassin_seen and 
/var/amavis/.spamassassin_toks



So my questions is..how do I tell if sa-learn is working as it should? 
What files should exist and should change as sa-learn does it thing - 
running as user "vscan"?

Thanks
Thomas
