And it causes all kinds of problems. I have said, and say again:
let's take it out and make bogofilter only handle single messages.
We will all be *much* happier with the results.

Aside from David's objection on the grounds that he'd hate to reduce
bogofilter's feature set, does anyone else have a strong[1] objection to
this change?

I honestly do not believe that this is a necessary feature. And it only
complicates the user interface and the code.

[1] My aversion to the current behaviour *is* strong.
