Simply delete the Bayes database files (all of them). The system will
recreate them from scratch when you rerun your test.

I'm not sure how you would "pipe the messages through manually."  I do
all my sa-learn by collecting my ham into one mailbox file, my spam
into a second mailbox file, and then executing sa-learn once against
each mailbox, telling it which type of mail is in each.
