Just upgraded to latest version Mail Gateway 6.4-3 and hoped this would be fixed but looks like it's not.

No matter what message I check there is always BAYES_00(-1.9). How to check if it's operating properly? This value should be variable depending on the message.

If you check on https://github.com/apache/spamassassin/search?q=BAYES_00 you get the description:
Code:
require_version @@VERSION@@
###########################################################################
ifplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Bayes
body BAYES_00        eval:check_bayes('0.00', '0.01')
#Additional rule to add more of a score to BAYES_99 FOR 99.9% to 100%
body BAYES_999        eval:check_bayes('0.999', '1.00')
tflags BAYES_00        nice learn
tflags BAYES_05        nice learn

I did not add BAYES_00 to Configuration-Spam Detector-Custom Scores. It's not added so it should not be the same.

Also this is enabled:

Let me know if you have any ideas.

Thank you!

If every mail hits BAYES_00 - my guess is that your bayes database has been trained wrong
the easiest would be to disable bayes in the GUI (this removes the Database) and optionally to reenable it again (it will be trained with newly arriving mail)

In my personal setups I don't rely on BAYES (since for me it causes more false negatives and positives than without it)

I hope this helps!
