[Mimedefang] BAYES not working with Mimedefang

[Oliver Schulze L.]

I suggest using a directory that is readable by the defang user.
By defang, only root can access files inside /root

So, here is the my recomended setup:
in sa-mimedefang.conf put this lines:
bayes_path /var/db/spamassassin/bayes/bayes
bayes_file_mode 664

Then, create the directory
mkdir -p /var/db/spamassassin/bayes/
chown defang.defang -R /var/db/spamassassin/bayes

Look the bayes files grow:
ls -l /var/db/spamassassin/bayes/bayes*
-rw-rw-r--  1 defang defang    52464 Feb  3 13:32 
/var/db/spamassassin/bayes/bayes_journal
-rw-rw-rw-  1 defang defang 83968000 Feb  3 13:30 
/var/db/spamassassin/bayes/bayes_seen
-rw-rw-r--  1 defang defang  5414912 Feb  3 13:30 
/var/db/spamassassin/bayes/bayes_toks
-rw-rw-r--  1 defang defang  5390336 Aug  4  2006 
/var/db/spamassassin/bayes/bayes_toks.expire25608

Then run sa-learn with:
sa-lean -p /etc/mail/sa-mimedefang.conf
