Your log shows that you have trained a lot more spam messages than good
messages which could affect the accuracy of the filter, but other than
that nothing looks out of the ordinary. Could you be a little more
specific about what you mean by "doesn't filter anymore"? Are messages
not getting scored at all, spam messages scoring below the spam
threshold, or messages being scored as spam but not moved?
 
Try highlighting a message that didn't "filter" properly and then
selecting "Show spam clues" from the SpamBayes menu. What does it show
for a combined score? If the score is above your spam threshold then
messages aren't being moved for some reason. See if you can find some
additional log files (spambayes4.log is usually the oldest log, while
spambayes1.log would be the most recent). If the score is below the spam
threshold then try forwarding the clues to the list and someone may be
able to help you understand why the message isn't scoring properly.
