Hello, All,
I'm looking for a type of utility that either specifically was written to do
what I describe below or a utility which is a broad-based text
massaging/manipulation utility which could be twisted to do the following.

I would like a utility that I could feed the bodies of nigerian scam letters
into and it would basically create a list of all phrases of world length X
to Y where X and Y are both numbers.  It would capture information from each
scam letter that I feed in and would generate an ordered list of each time
the X to Y word length phrase appears in each letter.

So, for example, if my X and Y were 3 and 5 it would generate a list of all
3 word, 4 word and 5 word phrases found in each message.  Then it would add
1 to the tally of each time this phrase is found in any given unique
nigerian scam letter.  After I submit a certain letters, e.g. 20 (?), I
would have a list of very commonly found phrases in Nigerian scam letters.
I could then create a custom filter for DJM based on those phrases.

Ultimately my filter might look something like...

# JunkMail.Filter.Nigerian.txt

BODY 10 CONTAINS Nigerian Federal Ministry
BODY 10 CONTAINS prayed for ALLAHS devine mercies
BODY 10 CONTAINS shores of Nigeria
BODY 10 CONTAINS we solicit for your

I was hoping that their might be a small utility that some of the Nigerian
scam fighting organizations had released to generate keyphrase lists.

Does this sound like a decent idea?  Are there any good utilities to do
this?  Or is this something I'd have to write myself?  Would it be
prohibitively complicated to write a program like this for a person who
hasn't done much programming?  Or is this pretty straightforward?

Thanks In Advance,
Dan
