Well there are a bunch of procmail filters(1) one can use, but I find that
methodology cumbersome. I'd rather use an application like Spamprobe or
Spamassassin to do this. Both can be called from one's procmailrc.
I use Spamprobe, simply because for *MY* needs, it's the faster of the two.
Spamassassin(2) is a bunch of perl scripts with a Bayesian filter incorporated.
Spamprobe(3) is a C++ application that uses Bayesian exclusively. Spamprobe is
extremely fast, because it is a compiled application in C++.
