Hi pi,

It's working fine here.  As a test I ran the following commands:

   echo xxx > ~/.bogofilter.cf
   bogofilter
   echo zzz > /etc/bogofilter.cf
   bogofilter

The first bogofilter run complained 

	Error - bad parameter 'xxx'

and the second complained

	Error - bad parameter 'zzz'
	Error - bad parameter 'xxx'

Evidently something strange is happening on your machine.  Generate some
debug output with  "bogofilter -x c -vvv -Q" and we can learn more.
