We run an open source project that offers Bayesian filtering ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/mailwasher ), and it would be interesting to see how we fare compared to your selections.

Could you post your tests so we can do this?

I could post the script, but I would be reluctant to post the test messages - that is a fair amount of my personal mail, after all. If I get a chance, I'll run the test and post the results.

That would also be good. We test by sending all mail in a directory to the desired server - we do tend to get sidetracked onto the performance side of things, and it would be handy to see how it stacks up against the opposition when run by a far more independent source! Cheers, Steve
