Well I've done quite a bit of RTFM and now I've totally
hosed my setup, it appears. I should have left well enough
alone.

That may have been just before I rejoined this list. I
have tried to find a searchable mailing-list archive.

Most suggestions involve turning off the mailserver which
is close to impossible in my case... it's way too busy.
I have a feeling I'm going to have to rebuild most of 4k
databases and I have no corpus to start from so are there
any recommended bogofilter friendly ham/spam collections
out there ?

I have been googling but ham/spam/corpus and other keywords
have not got me anything decent so far.
