How can I sync the thunderbird junk filter training data between multiple computers?

I run thunderbird client on my home desktop, work desktop, and laptop.

I like the adaptive / trainable junk filter offered by thunderbird and plan to invest the time and effort training it to differentiate the ham from the spam. Ideally, I do not want to replicate the training on all of my machines - and I want the filters to work from wherever I am checking my email...

How can I do this? Is there any way to synchronizing the training data?

If you established junk controls on one computer, you could transfer the training.dat file from one profile folder to another, but that would simply copy the rules, not synchronize them. A better, and perhaps the only, way to truly synchronize spam filtering is to use an intermediary mail provider.
