Mailing List Archive: bayes-learn problem

Greetings all -- first post to the list.

I noticed in my cron-log, that my cronjob for sa-learn, is returning
errors. Just started after upgrading my spamassassin. FWIW, I'm using
Debian 'Testing'. Here is the output run in debug mode, apologies in
advance for the copious output Hopefully this will mean something to
someone;

For the archives:

I don't know what the issue was, however deleting 'bayes_seen' &
'bayes_toks' in ~Home fixed the problem. One of those things...

Thanks for the off-list suggestions.
