[Evolution] Spam Blocking :: Bayesian Filtering

[Christopher Ness <nesscg mcmaster ca>]

Hello again,

A glance of /. lead me to http://www.paulgraham.com/spam.html and
bayesian filtering.  Quite an in depth paper on spam and the math behind
*proper* filtering.  An interesting read if you've got 10 minutes.

In order for this filtering to occur it cannot happen on the server - I
suppose it could, but would be very taxing on resources - since each
person needs to taylor (pun intended) the probabilities of tokens
(words) to the type of spam and valid emails they get both in the
message and the header.

Can others see how valuable a leading edge feature like this could be in
Evo?
