So trim your database from time-to-time.  There's no requirement that it
grow without bound.  I trim the oldest 10-20% of messages from both my ham
and spam collections at least every couple of months.  It has two nice
properties: mistakes eventually fall off the end and the database doesn't
grow without bound (with attendant performance implications).
