RE: [vps-mail] Large Spamassassin bayes_toks file

["Jim Smith" <maillists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A couple of follow-up questions: I put the "bayes_expiry_max_db_size 110000"
line in my /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf file but it didn't touch my token
or journal file. I tried to do an "sa-learn --rebuild" to whittle down the
journal file (from some reading  I did in the manual); but still no joy. I
did it with debug -D on and noticed it is only dealing with
"/root/.spamassassin/bayes_toks". I tried pointing "--configpath" and/or
"--siteconfigpath=" to "/home/jimsmith/.spamassassin" but it still goes to
the root.

I tried putting the "bayes_expiry_max_db_size 110000" in my user_prefs file
to see if that would do anything but it still doesn't.

Questions:
If possible, how do I manually run these commands on select databases?
Where do I put the "bayes_expiry_max_db_size 110000" so it works in each
person's token file?

Thanks,

Jim Smith
