Now, granted, that message was still sufficiently obviously bullshit to get dumped, but there's plenty slipping through.

Dammit.

I don't really care what I did, or whether it might be fixable with real effort… lazyweb, is there a single command I can run to make this go away:

Or am I just dicked and should rebuild my Bayes DB?

(Note that rebuilding the Bayes DB is not very much effort, really. I have all real email since 1997 and all spam for the past 13 months. So… that's two non-trivial command lines involving loops, and then I go to bed while the aging G3 chugs.)

Update: I R'ed TFM. No, sa-learn –rebuild doesn't fix this, it gets the same locking error. Fuck it, move the files aside, –rebuild, then start feeding it again. If anybody's got a clue, let me know, since I didn't delete the old files yet, but, eh.
