Er, that means `I didn't autolearn'.

You might want to upgrade to 3.02 at some point.

Well, um, that mail was classified as spam.

Bayes didn't seem to kick off, but it may just have classified things as
50% instead: SA 2.64 didn't differentiate between `error' and `can't
learn', so we can't tell from this.

Could you run the message through `spamasssin -D' and post the result?

Ask on the spamassassin-users mailing list?
