On the "goodlist.db corruption" issue, I have now serialized my
bogofiltering, in my .mailfilter, I have this:

flock ".bogofilter.lock" {
    xfilter "bogofilter -e -p -u -r -l"
}

This has been in place for 2 and a half hours now, without .db
corruption so far, with more than 150 mails filtered. So I do think
there might be really locking issues. I'll observe things for more time
before going to dig for a locking bug though.
