SpamBayes 1.0 releasedSpamBayes 1.0 releasedPosted Sep 30, 2004 16:46 UTC (Thu) by rmstar (guest, #3672)In reply to: SpamBayes 1.0 released by dlang Parent article: SpamBayes 1.0 released blocklists tend to be very fragile so if the spammer just keeps creating more varients of his messaes they tend to get through. I think you have a misconception about what blocklists do. They block IP adresses, they do not try to do substring matching. You say that if a human can distinguish between spam and non-sam, so can a machine. That is wrong, at least with current technology. I sometimes get spam of the form "Hi sweethart - I'm longing to see you gain. Call me at <some phone number>". Whether such a mail is legit or not really depends on who is the recipient and who is the sender, and wether they know each other.
