bayes auto learn threshold

How do I set the auto learn thresholds for the bayes filtering in spamassassin?
The default for learning spam seems to be really high, I'd like to bring it down to 9.0 but I can't find where to put the parameter.

Place this parameter here...

/etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf

Code: Select all

bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam 9.0

Hi,

I've two, possibly stupid, questions for you

1/ did you restart mailscanner afterwards?

2/ how do you know it didn't work?
