[Mimedefang] SA autolearn, missing bayes_journal file

[Marcus Schopen]

Hi,

I'm wondering about missing bayes_journal file using mimedefang 2.78 and
Spamassassin 3.4.1. On another instance with (what I see) same
configuration this file is created.
Because upgrading from a SA version < 3.4.0 I wiped its database
"sa-learn -dbpath /var/spool/MIMEDefang/.spamassassin --clear" as
considered in SA upgrade path. Anything misconfigured here?

Btw: what's are good values for bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam and
bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam?

Ciao

Ah, got it. bayes_journal is just a temp file before synchronized into
the databases. The server where I see it, is very low volume, so it
takes some time until bayes_journal_max_size is reached. I thought it's
a mimedefang permission problem.
