At the top of /etc/bogofilter.cf it states:

`Non-comment lines of bogofilter.cf.example show default settings as
used in the bogofilter source code.'

Now bogofilter's maintainer has taken bogofilter.cf.example and copied
it to /etc/bogofilter.cf, at the same time inserting # at the beginning
of each line.  I would assume this would have no effect on the default
settings (lines commencing with a single #) as they are in the source
code and the binary is compiled using them.

So you have a workable configuration without having to alter this file.
