Bayesian Test Oddities
I recently did a --force-expire on my bayesian database as I was getting
some false positives with it and the information it in was getting to be
over a year old. Since then, when automatically scanning, bayesian
tests are not being run. This can be seen in the headers of each of my
inbound emails. I took one of the messages that SpamAssassin did not
tag as SPAM and ran it through manually (spamassassin -D < emailfile)
and bayesian tests were run, marking the message as high spam.
Any ideas why the test is running when I manually scan a message, but
not automatically as it was doing prior to the --force-expire?
Thanks in advance.

Perhaps the automated scan is running under a different user than when you
did a manual scan.
It's common.
