database corruption

[Fred Yankowski]

Prompted by these recent messages I tried db_verify, and my
spamlist.db also fails to verify:

	db_verify: Page 1522: incorrect next_pgno 893 found in leaf chain (should be 391)
	db_verify: Page 391: incorrect prev_pgno 893 found in leaf chain (should be 1522)

I too use "bogofilter -u" from procmail scripts without any explicit
locking.  Is that wrong?

Even with this error in the database, bogofilter (0.12.2, after a
series of upgrades from earlier releases carrying same database
forward) is doing a fine job of discriminating my incoming mail.  Any
thoughts on what level of noise from db_verify would justify
rebuilding the database?
