Liam, I'm not sure where you've been looking, but if you found us, it was for something we posted long, long ago. :-) That said, I believe there are three reasons why SpamBayes hasn't advanced in a long while: 1. The lack of someone able to build a Windows installer for new releases. Traditionally, SpamBayes most common user has been on Windows, running Outlook. 2. The need to port from Python 2 to Python 3. SB was available in some Linux distros, but I think has been dropped (or will be shortly) because it doesn't run on Python 3. 3. The relative improvement in other easier-to-use spam filters. For example, Google's is pretty darn good these days. If you are able to help with either of the first two road blocks, I think that would be great.
