           Summary: BAYES_99 has lower score than BAYES_95 ?!?!?
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.0.0
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P5
         Component: Score Generation
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: sehh@altered.com


I installed SA v3 (been using 2.xx for some years now). The first thing i noticed
was that many BAYES_99 emails wouldn't get a high score, while BAYES_95 or so
would get higher scores.

then i noticed that 50_scores.cf has the following:

score BAYES_50 0 0 1.567 0.001
score BAYES_60 0 0 3.515 0.372
score BAYES_80 0 0 3.608 2.087
score BAYES_95 0 0 3.514 2.063
score BAYES_99 0 0 4.070 1.886

WOW!! that is messed up!

BAYES_80 has higher score than BAYES_95 (3.608,3.514 and 2.087,2.063)

BAYES_95 has higher score than BAYES_99 (2.063,1.886)


from my understanding, BAYES_99 means 'more spamminess' right? so why does a
'more spam' email get less score from a 'less spam' email?
