Description-en: fast Bayesian spam filter (dummy package)
This package implements a fast Bayesian spam filter along the lines suggested
by Paul Graham in his article "A Plan For Spam".
.
This version substantially improves on Paul's proposal by doing smarter
lexical analysis. In particular, hostnames and IP addresses are retained
as recognition features rather than broken up. Various kinds of MTA
cruft such as dates and message-IDs are discarded so as not to bloat
the word lists.
