I've turned off bayes, but I'm not sure which line you're talking
about second.

If you mean listing scores in each mail, I've got scores and tests
attached to every email - and I'm seeing scores as low as 0.0001 for
various tests [not right now, but previously, for bayes].

With bayes turned off, I'm unfortunately still seeing these ultra-low
scores (eg)

X-Spam-Score: 0.784 () BIZ_TLD

vs

X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=9.5 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_99,BIZ_TLD,
	MISSING_MIMEOLE,MISSING_OUTLOOK_NAME,RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET,
	RCVD_IN_DSBL,RCVD_IN_SORBS autolearn=no version=2.61

Out of the ones that are caught as spam, many of them would have passed
as ham if I hadn't decreased my spam threshold to 4.

cheers!
