can I delete a bayes token?

[Ky...@transplace.com]

We have a script that does some unattended spam learning from a designated
spam box that our users report spam to.  I ran a dump on the bayes db and I
noticed some tokens that shouldn't be ranked so highly, so I started
watching the spam box and it seems that some users got "confused" and
reported ham as spam and so spamassassin has learned these tokens
incorrectly...  Is there any way to just delete these incorrect tokens and
leave the others?  I don't have any of the old mail to run through with the
--forget option...

any suggestions?

Thanks,

Not easily.. You'd have to dump the whole db as text, edit it, and then 
reload it.

A bit easier would be to re-train the mis-learned messages as the correct 
type. SA will recognize that the message was previously mis-learned and 
compensate appropriately.
