SA needs to know where you store the bayes files. So for example edit
/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf and define bayes_path
/var/spool/MD-Quarantine/bayes.

If you want mimedefang to use bayes filter autolearning set up

use_bayes 1
auto_learn 1
bayes_file_mode 0700
bayes_path /var/spool/MD-Quarantine/bayes

in /etc/mail/spamassassin/sa-mimedefang.cf.
