Fix the above errors. Those lines are invalid.

the rewrite_subject bit has been replaced, see UPGRADE

     rewrite_subject 1
     subject_tag ****SPAM(_SCORE_)****

   becomes

     rewrite_header Subject ****SPAM(_SCORE_)****


auto_learn should be bayes_auto_learn. I don't think it's ever not had 
bayes in it's name

Um.. what are sa-learn --import and sa-learn --upgrade?  This is SA 3.0 
man.. Those arguments no longer exist.

Try running sa-learn -D --sync and see what happens. Thats the bayes DB 
upgrade command for SA 3.0.

When you ran sa-learn --clear, did it actually work and remove the files or 
reduce them to 0 bytes?

If the sync above doesn't work, and --clear doesn't truly wipe the files, 
use rm -f bayes_* and retrain.

Will do, I'm just trying to figure out how to implement them in my 
environment (IE - some of the directives are fed via AmavisD). They 
should not be the cause of my problem either way -ya?

Sorry, meant import and sync.

Yes. It removed the files entirely. Running SA after with no bayes files 
gave the same error - I suppose that would point to it not being an 
actual file compatibility issue, but something inside SA failing 
(missing library or something)?
