Well, for whatever reason sa-learn refuses to dump the database when
spamd is not running. I am about to give up on having a proper backup,
and am thinking I'll just copy the raw bayes db (mailing list posts I
found imply this is OK) before clearing it.

Since the bayes db is causing more harm than good (by BAYES_00ing
obvious spam), however, I've disabled it as a test temporarily. I really
should have done that week ago.
