Sorry to reply to my own post.  But it looks like my wordlist might be  
out of whack.  I see this in my maillog:
Mar 24 18:29:33 mail bogofilter[12429]: X-Bogosity: No,  
spamicity=0.000000, version=1.1.3
It looks to me like bogofilter is scoring everything, but nothing is  
getting scored as spam.  I currently have users report emails as spam,  
and emails as innocent.  Emails reported as spam I import with a perl  
script:

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Executing 'bogofilter -Nsv < /var/local/imp-spam' three times\n";
`bogofilter -Nsv < /var/local/imp-spam`;
`bogofilter -Nsv < /var/local/imp-spam`;
`bogofilter -Nsv < /var/local/imp-spam`;

print "Archiving imp-spam to /var/local/imp-spam-archive\n";
`cat /var/local/imp-spam >> /var/local/imp-spam-archive`;

print "Clearing contents of /var/local/imp-spam\n";
`cat < /dev/null > /var/local/imp-spam`;

Emails that are reported as innocent I import as:
#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Executing 'bogofilter -Snv < /var/local/not-spam' three times\n";
`bogofilter -Snv < /var/local/not-spam`;
`bogofilter -Snv < /var/local/not-spam`;
`bogofilter -Snv < /var/local/not-spam`;

print "Archiving not-spam to /var/local/not-spam-archive\n";
`cat /var/local/not-spam >> /var/local/not-spam-archive`;

print "Clearing contents of /var/local/imp-spam\n";
`cat < /dev/null > /var/local/not-spam`;

Im guessing that bogofilter -Snv isnt the correct way to import emails  
and have them scored as ham.  Is anyone else trying this?   My users  
arent savy enough to have each one manage their own spam.   I  
currently go through the messages reported as spam so that users dont  
report the super (or me) as spam, then run the imp-spam.  This has  
worked very well for perhaps 3 years.  I just added the report as  
innocent option.
