That is because this feature is not implemented yet.

Ii is not documented but it is pretty trivial.  Basically it is a word 
list, one word per line, with a special header:

  "personal_ws-1.1 en 86"

The second word is the language, the third is the number of words in the 
dictionary.  But this number is only used as a hint so it can be 0.  When 
Aspell saves the personal word list the number will be updated.

You can also add words to a personal word list using the "pipe" interface.  
See that manual for documentation on using the "pipe" interface.
