Let me give you an example. Here's 2 subject lines. Easy to guess which
one is spam.
"Meet horny Russian Brides online!"
"I read an article about Russian brides in a magazine."
Bayes or spam assassin would look at "Russian Brides" and 499 out of 500
times it's spam. Therefore the nonspam version scores spam points.
In my system "Russian brides" is neutral because it is used in both spam
and ham. But on the spam side, phrases used in other spam *not matched*
in ham
that is *exactly* how bayes works and subject alone is *not* they key
tokenizing the *whole* message with enough spam *and* ham samples is
the key - so there are two options:
* you re-invited bayes with a different name
* you modified bayes with some tricks and hope
spammers would not adopt them
anyways, i doubt there is a sane reason for a patent because the
principles are just prior art -> bayes
Again - Bayes compares what matches. My filter compares what doesn't match.
