bayes: not available for scanning

are there other filters running? or can just be that emails get downloaded and deleted from the server by users before the bayesian filter can start running?

After the email is scanned with SA the mail is scanned with amavisd. This is all automatic and users can't interupt this process.

but what if the critical quota of 50 can't be reached because the mailbox keeps getting empty?

The scanning is done before the message gets to the mailbox. The system recieves the mail, SA (with bayes) and amavis scans the messages and if the message is no spam the message is dropped in the mailbox.

then, it's spamassassin which is not blocking the spam emails; otherwise they would be dropped into the database and analyzed

OK. What can i do to fix the problem?

With the information I've got, I can't tell. Post configuration files

Hi ai ja nai:

This is the top of my local.cf:

Have you got Razor (and its conf file)?

Yes here it is:
debuglevel             = 3
identity               = identity
ignorelist             = 0
listfile_catalogue     = servers.catalogue.lst
listfile_discovery     = servers.discovery.lst
listfile_nomination    = servers.nomination.lst
logfile                = razor-agent.log
logic_method           = 4
min_cf                 = ac
razordiscovery         = discovery.spamnet.com
rediscovery_wait       = 172800
report_headers         = 1
turn_off_discovery     = 0
use_engines            = 4,8
whitelist              = razor-whitelist

I can't see in any of those files where the spam is quarantined once it's recognized

Happy to hear it!
