[CLUE-Tech] Spam filters.

[Dale Hawkins]

There is an implementation of a statistics based filter at
http://bogofilter.sourceforge.net/

I have written one as well (though it is not fully complete).  The
approach does work very well in my experience.  I am in the process of
collecting spam and good mail my word database.

(All I really need to do is finish the "interface" to gnus and
procmail and to create a database vacuuming feature to clean up very
old entries.  Could be finished in a few hours of work if I find the
time).
