I already thought this, i postet my mutt-makros, because there are the 
command line options of bogofilter set.

I'm able to built it by hand, but I prefer using the packages of debian. 
The advantage for me is, that i haven't to update always by hand.

                       spam   good
.MSG_COUNT                7      0
The number of "spam" increases everytime I run bogofilter -s, 
looks for me like it works correctly.
But: 
torsten at b5:~ > bogofilter -v -d /home/torsten/.bogofilter/ < /freigabe/mail
X-Bogosity: No, tests=bogofilter, spamicity=0.415000, version=0.11.1.3

This is the same mail i send with -s through bogofilter.

It does look right.

These lines are looking always the same for every token.

Well, I looked at the faq, but it didn't helped me.
