hi all,

a recent posting by jem had me wondering about the terms in my database
(using pbl) and i found it rather bizzare that neither cleanup nor purge
was doing anything to the terms (import/export doesn't do anything to
the count terms either)

# wc -l dbword 
 290809 dbword
# spamprobe.pbl -d . counts
GOOD 9681 SPAM 27128
# spamprobe.pbl -d . purge 10000
# spamprobe.pbl -d . counts
GOOD 9681 SPAM 27128
# spamprobe.pbl -d . purge 20000
# spamprobe.pbl -d . counts
GOOD 9681 SPAM 27128
# spamprobe.pbl -d . cleanup 20000 20000
# spamprobe.pbl -d . counts
GOOD 9681 SPAM 27128
# spamprobe.pbl -d . cleanup 20000 1
# spamprobe.pbl -d . counts
GOOD 9681 SPAM 27128

and the odd one i just did while typing this:

# spamprobe.pbl -d . export > dbword
# wc -l dbword 
  35675 dbword
# spamprobe.pbl -d . import < dbword
# spamprobe.pbl -d . counts
GOOD 19362 SPAM 54256




(i'm working on a copy of the database here :)

before that i tried various cleanup options (2 7,2 14, 5 18) and smaller
purges. the numbers never changed 

brian? any idea?
