When no files are created and no error is issued somewhere, I suppose you 
deactiveated bayes, e.g. check the settings of

bayes_auto_learn
and
use_bayes

Alternatively, try the sa-learn tool, e.g.

su defang $(which sa-learn) --spam|--ham file|folder

at least you will see that MIMEDefang/Spamassassin would be able to create 
the bayes database. (Sorting out permission problems etc.)
