Hey Chris,
Thanks for that.
I have a couple of questions on that.

What makes it so difficult for Bayesian Filters to
filter the spam using the same database for multiple
users?

Also, when you mentioned about SMTP, I have this
question, why is there no solution of stopping SPAM at
the SMTP Level?
Comeon, are we impotent to stop the spammers from
using this bandwidth in the first place?

Thanks
Dont
