Hi Tig,

Sorry about that.  I should have suggested "bogupgrade -h" to display
the help message.  After sending my reply, I checked the man page and
found it to be woefully out of date.  All you need to do is run
"bogoupgrade -d your_directory".  It will find spamlist.db and
goodlist.db and will create wordlist.db.  

Bogofilter will auto-detech whether you have a combined or separate
wordlists.  It checks for wordlist.db and, if found, uses it.  If
wordlist.db isn't found, it checks for spamlist.db and goodlist.db and
uses them.
