Hello David,

It seems fine on my PIII Mandrake Linux box.  "bogofilter -v <msg.bad" says 
"X-Bogosity: No, tests=bogofilter, spamicity=0.908845, version=0.12.2".

Tell us what's special about your machine :-)  x86 or other?  version of 
db3?  Did you install from rpm or build from tarball?  If you built it 
yourself, did you run "make check" to verify it's working?

Does "bogofilter -p " work with other messages?

Have you tried "bogolexer -p < msg.bad" to see if the message can be parsed?

It wouldn't be the first time that bogofilter has seg faulted :-(  However, 
we've been able to fix all the seg faults before now and I expect we'll be 
able to get you going as well.

David
