When I change sylpheed version, I copy the database and the binary in the new directory (2.3.0beta7 at present). I am reasonably happy with it (about 90% success, from time to time some good messages going into the junk folder, I must look for this every time).

Where exactly did you find bsfilterw.exe?  One thing I've never
understood is if one has to look every time anyway, why not use a front
end app like Mailwasher (free or Pro)?
