Hello,

I've been doing evaluations of various clustering algorthims. I'd like to do some testing to see if I can improve SA speed by adding some clustering capabilities. Is there a goto corpus that you use for testing and baseline.

I've attached a draft of some of my research using malware corpus and I'd like to begin working on doing the same with spam.

As far as I know, there's no shareable corpus of email that is useful for spam research. The problems are that there is a very loose consensus on what is or is not spam, what spam and non-spam people get has huge variability, and personally identifying information can be a significant clue in identifying spam.

The corpora that I've used for research have all been built from the mail flows of the people backing the research.
