(moz 5 rc 2) Moz mail id's most junk.  Tbird seems to work intermittantly-esq.  
It id's a lot of junk on startup, and some while running, but Moz id's most junk 
most of the time.  Would like to use tbird, but...

I've tried giving it days to self-train.  Ive tried most settings.  Still, may 
be a user error..??

I migrated from Mozilla to Thunderbird 0.3. Mozilla did a good job of catching 
the Junk, but to date Thunderbird hasn't caught a single one. On another 
computer, where I didn't migrate from Mozilla, Thunderbird catches one every 
now and then, but orders of magnitude less than the POPFile installation I used 
there before.

Is there any way to delete the junk database and start over from scratch?

Kevin, delete the training.dat file in your profile-directory.

Reporter (notfoo) -- is this bug still a problem for you?

When I made the move to TB a month ago, I simply copied my training.dat file 
over; I have seen no noticeable difference in TB's Junk effectiveness compared 
to Mozilla's.
