Randomtrain knows whether the message is ham/spam and checks bogofilter's 
result.  A mis-match calls for training.

Since "unsure" matches neither ham nor spam, any message classified as 
"unsure" is (by definition) incorrectly classified.

I think you _can_ use it with tri-state, but there's no value in doing that.
