I don't know for sure, but it sounded like that was just a
bootstrapping problem that could be solved by creating the database
with training from corpus. 

It's not a bad idea to do that anyway because TOE doesn't turn-on until
there are 2500 non-spams in the database.

I frequently rebuild from corpus. Training ~9000 emails takes 
~ 3 minutes with the hash driver and ~ 7 hours with sqlite3.

I can't say I've ever noticed any corruption problem, and because of the
corpora I don't regard the css files as precious, or care about token
expiry. Is there any particular reason why I shouldn't use the
hash driver?
