Bogofilter and reclassifying

Hello,

I'm just wondering what is the "correct"/best way to reclassify a message.

Currently I have a script that will grep through spam/ham dirs for an 
incorrect X-Bogosity header.  It then rescores it, checks to see if it is 
still incorrect and if so, it reclassifies it as spam/ham (if its the first 
pass it will -N or -S apporiatly) until it correctly scores.  It does this 
all while overwriting the file with the new X-Bogosity header.

Is this correct?  Most howtos I've seen either recreate a wordlist or just 
mark as spam/ham the entire corpus, but I didn't want to maintain large 
corpuses and wanted something fairly efficient...

Thanks.
