Summary: import/export of probability databases

Initial Comment:
It would be nice to have the capability to import and 

export probability databases.  This would allow you to 

be able to synchronize your work email filter and home, 

for instance.  



Taken one step further, automagic periodic updates 

could be made between one's clients using public key 

crypto, digital signature, and hash for automatic 

authentication and synchronization of database 

transmissions...

The FAQ only talks about copying the databases across, not 

importing and exporting.  To do this, use the dbExpImp.py 

script in the 1.0a5 (source) release.  This can convert your 

database to a plain text file (and back).  You could use this 

to merge two databases.



Re: the automagic - would this really be worth the effort 

needed to implement it?  both databases should be able to 

learn independently, and fairly quickly, without having to 

resort to this.

Sorry, no automagic.
