Great article!

I'm worried that routine activities such as online shopping might be difficult with this approach. In the "definition of spam" section, the paper touches on what is and is not spam, referencing a merchant receipt as an example of something commercial that isn't spam.

My question is, does the receipt pass the Bayesian filter or get flagged as spam?
