Observations:

(1) Hardly any rules are hitting.

(2) Everything is getting BAYES_00.

Do you need help?X

The very first thing to look at is your Bayes database. How are you training it, and how has it gotten so badly mistrained? Are you using a Bayes database that is global to all your clients, or per-user Bayes databases? How are you training? Is the user actually responsible training, and the problem is basically their own fault?

Can you run "sa-learn --dump magic" and send us the output?

As Dave said, do you have network tests disabled?
