Re: [PLUG] Spamassassin Bayes Question - Where is the Database? Is it Working?

[Greg Helledy <gregsonh@gra-inc.com>]

I ended up turning off Bayes, after multiple occasions where mail 
delivery stopping because spamd had just ground to a halt.  You can set 
the system to deliver mail without scanning if spamd is unavailable, 
which I thought would prevent mail delivery from depending on 
spamassassin running properly, but spamd was still running and reported 
itself available, just had stopped actually processing.

We're now relying solely on the rules-based processing.  Have you ever 
run without Bayes?  Do you feel that Bayes provides a significant 
improvement over relying on the rules?
