Thats a pretty wild claim to make straight off, technically ASSP has been around longer than DSPAM from what I see. > Would it be worthwhile to explore replacing that engine with DSPAM? > > DSPAM is a very advanced bayesian filter that has (I believe) many more > features and is potentially a lot smarter than the bayesian filter in > ASSP.

Show me proof, or to quote the almighty wikipedia *Citation Needed. Aside from the per user Bayesian i don't see the benefit.(and per user Bayesian is not all that useful unless you are an ISP or webhost IMHO) <--snippity--> We already rely on external Perl modules and some people aren't exactly pleased with that (myself included in one instance) I can't see relying on a completely 3rd party product for Bayesian filtering a wise choice, I for one would NOT appreciate the extra work(read: one more thing that can break) involved. I think you'll hear the same thing from Fritz but as for me I'll tell you this, if you want this integration feel free to write the code yourself but I don't foresee anyone rushing out to take on this project. Also were you paid to write that message? It seems eerily like an advertisement. :) Kevin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
