Gordon,
For sitewide Bayesian, i have the bayes stuff running as user 'defang', i
guess since SA runs as defang. Here are the relevant lines from my
sa-mimedefang.cf:
#Enable bayes
use_bayes 1
bayes_auto_learn 1
bayes_path /sendmail/mqueue/MIMEDefang/bayes/bayes
bayes_file_mode 0666
The bayes_path dir has these permissions:
drwxr-xr-x 2 defang defang 0 Apr 9 19:55 /sendmail/mqueue/MIMEDefang/bayes/
And the contents of:
[root at norm root]# ls -l /sendmail/mqueue/MIMEDefang/bayes/
total 15024
-rw-rw-rw- 1 defang defang 71890 Apr 9 19:55 bayes_journal
-rw-r--r-- 1 defang defang 10522624 Apr 9 19:55 bayes_seen
-rw-rw-rw- 1 defang defang 4788224 Apr 9 19:55 bayes_toks
Supposedly bayesian is more effective with a per-user bayes db, as opposed
to a sitewide db. This would be much more complicated though. I believe
this is a feature of Can-It Pro?
