Do you clear out these folders between cronjobs as well?  Otherwise, 
won't this throw off bogofilter's tokens as it re-registers each old 
email every time the job runs?

The bogofilter(1) man page says:

        Bogofilter doesn't detect if a message registered twice. If you 
        do this by accident, the token counts will off by 1 from what 
        you really want and the corresponding spam scores will be 
        slightly off.
