[Spambayes] Why do I get more spam when using SpamBayes?!?

I have used spambayes for around 6 months now to fetch mail from 6 e-mail
accounts, 3 are still spam free so I don't believe Spambayes has anything to
do with the amount of spam you're getting. Spam has risen explosively in
recent times worldwide so I think the reason lies there and not with
spambayes.
