Issue with expiry

[Fred <te...@i-is.com>]

On a workstation which I use for developing rules, my bayes DB is in need of
expire and I'm having troubles.

[992] dbg: bayes: found bayes db version 3
[992] dbg: locker: refresh_lock: refresh /SpamAssassin/bayes.lock
[992] dbg: bayes: expiry check keep size, 0.75 * max: 187500

[992] dbg: bayes: expiry completed

SpamAssassin version 3.2.0-r322462
  running on Perl version 5.8.7

I haven't ran sa-learn --force-expire in a few weeks I'm guessing.  What can
I do to make this expire again?

Thank you,

Unfortunately, SA can't find the right atime delta to use for expiry, so it
can't do the expire.  The only real option is to leave it, or learn from a
bunch of new mails and try again (the more tokens which are "new", the more
likely SA is to be able to expire.)
