Forwarded from Debian BTS:

It's probable that I've mucked up something in the configuration, but...

Having just ran out of disk space I was astonished to find that
/var/spool/spamassassin/nobody/ was taking up 42GB (sic). This consisted
of thousands of bayes_toks.expire files, one for every single email
received, for all users, going back months:

diz $ ls -l
total 47576
-rw-rw-rw-  1 root   root       86016 2003-10-25 23:16 auto-whitelist
-rw-------  2 root   root       12288 2003-10-26 01:03
auto-whitelist.dir
-rw-------  2 root   root       12288 2003-10-26 01:03

-rw-rw-rw-  1 calum  calum    5255168 2004-08-23 16:14

-rw-rw-rw-  1 calum  calum    5255168 2004-08-23 16:29
bayes_toks.expire14922
-rw-rw-rw-  1 calum  calum    5255168 2004-08-23 16:36
bayes_toks.expire15160

etc, etc.

I don't have spamd enabled, and I have these options:

OPTIONS="-a -m 10 --helper-home-dir /var/spool/spamassassin/nobody"

and:

> bayes_path /var/spool/spamassassin/nobody/bayes
> bayes_file_mode 0777

in local.cf.

have I mucked up here?
