Sorry to bother everyone with this but I am stuck.  I am trying to get the 
Bayesian feature of Spamassassin working.  I have MIMEDefang 2.39 and 
Spamassassin 2.61 installed.  In /etc/mail/spamassassin/sa-mimedefang.cf I 
have the following options set.

use_bayes     1
auto_learn    1

In /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter I have

$SALocalTestsOnly = 0;

I expect that the bayesian database owned by the mimedefang user should be 
getting updated for every mail item that arrives.  However I don't see any 
updates taking place.  My filter passes the mimedefang.pl -test.  And 
mimedefang/spamassassin are working fine to analyze mail and add the 
X-Spam-Score: header when appropriate.

Any comments would be appreciated.
