I asked a very similar question last month.  Matthias told me to take a look 
at contrib/trainbogo.sh.  I haven't had any mis-labelled mails since I did.  
Now I keep two directories, bogotrain_ham and bogotrain_spam.  I drag my 
Unsure messages to the relevant one.  When I have enough saved I'll run 
trainbogo.sh again against those directories.  HTH
