as I know, some changes in databases structure was made in 0.5 version
and developer recommended to create database from zero. Here is a note
from him:

WARNING!  Since  internal  presentation  of unique message identifiers
were  changed  in  this  version, it is recommended to re-learn filter
from  zero by deleting old bases (files nspamdict.* and spamdict.* and
then   by   selecting   appropriate   letters   and  marking  them  as
spam\non-spam  -  note  that  if you select letters in threadvies, you
must  expand all threads before executing "select all", or just switch
the  view to off-threads (Alt+0), else only "heads" of threads will be
selected.)  This  recomendation  however  is  not critical and you can
still use your old trained bases.
