MTA = postfix
Filtering via maildrop

Okay, the problem of finding the global .bogofilter has been solved,
though I am uncertain what permissions the directory and contnents
should have.  I can submit to the aliases and get no complaints.

What I still have is all mail, no matter what , that is filtered, still
returns (the values never change):

X-Bogosity: Unsure, tests=bogofilter, spamicity=0.520000, version=0.93.5
    int  cnt   prob  spamicity histogram
   0.00    0 0.000000 0.520000
   0.10    0 0.000000 0.520000
   0.20    0 0.000000 0.520000
   0.30    0 0.000000 0.520000

   0.60    0 0.000000 0.520000
   0.70    0 0.000000 0.520000
   0.80    0 0.000000 0.520000
   0.90    0 0.000000 0.520000

Apparently, I've missed one more piece of the puzzle.
