I keep small mailboxes of hams and spams for retraining.

I'm almost certainly using a different SpamBayes application than you.  They
all use the same classifier but have different ways of managing the database
of messages used as input to the token database.  My guess would be that
you're using the POP3 proxy or the Outlook plugin.  I'm not sure what their
facilities for retraining are.
