[David Relson]

Hi Eric,

Welcome to the mailing list.  What you're doing looks fine.  Now it's 
question time ...

It looks like you've built bogofilter from the source code.  Have you run 
"make check"?  Did all the tests pass?

What version of bogofilter do you have?  We've not seen that problem in any 
version of bogofilter.  I just tried to reproduce your problem with 0.10.2, 
the current stable release, and didn't encounter your problem.

As an experiment, include flags "-x d -vv" in your command line to turn on 
some debugging information.  Here's some of my (correct) output using the 
spam and good mailboxes in directory tests/bogofilter/inputs:

Below is some annotated output from my test.  Feel free to duplicate what 
I've done and send the output to the list.

David
