Summary: sb_dbexpimp.py, sb_filter.py option incompatibility

Initial Comment:
Look at this: 
 
sb_dbexpimp.py --help 
[...] 
            -d: FN : name of pickled database file to use 
            -D: FN : name of dbm database file to use 
 
 
sb_filter.py --help 
[...] 
    -d DBFILE 
        use database in DBFILE 
    -D PICKLEFILE 
        use pickle (instead of database) in PICKLEFILE 
 
This inconsistency is functional, not only in the documentation.

As noted on the spambayes list, this can't be changed for the 
1.0 releases, because we have frozen those so that we don't 
break people's configuration.

See also a discussion of this on spambayes-dev a few months 
back (started by Greg Ward, IIRC).  The consensus was, I 
think, to use "-p filename" for pickles and "-d filename" for 
dbm.  This was before we had other classifier types (ie. SQL), 
though.  Overall, we recommend that users use the config file 
to set the storage method, not the command line.

Leaving open, as this does need to be resolved at some point 
(for 1.1a1, perhaps).
