Comparison of Bayesian POP3 Spam Filters

kreide writes "Spam e-mail has become an ever increasing problem, and these days it is next to impossible to use e-mail without receiving it in large amounts. Although various techniques exits to combat the problem, spammers seemed to be winning the war - until a new, powerful weapon appeared on the scene: Bayesian filters, our last, best hope for spam-free inboxes. In this review I compare POP3 based bayesian spam filters." We did an Ask Slashdot on this a few weeks ago.

    No adverts on the BBC? They advertise all the time - selling the radio and TV listings magazine (Radio Times) for example. They also cross-sell the different channels, especially now we've got BBC 3 and 4 in the UK. Just as annoying as "normal" advertising, IMHO.

    The quality of the programming is also going downhill fast - perhaps viewers outside of the UK are spared the dross we have to wade through here?

    Where do you think most of the spam out there comes from? Small business owners. Stop being unpatriotic and show your support for American small business owners.
