Seen this blurb from today?  I can't quite figure out
how I feel about it.

yeah, me too.  Both are SpamAssassin btw.
IMO, it's overall a good thing as

  (a) it lets legit publishers avoid relatively-obvious trouble areas
  (like talking about spam laws etc.)

  (b) it lures spammers into a false sense of security, as once they send
  their spam the massive quantity of forged headers will give them away
  anyway ;)

  (c) the Bayesian stuff will soon muddy the waters quite a bit more.
One other thing I've been thinking about is somehow storing SA results "live", and allowing them to be modified by sa-learn/forget etc. The results could be stored in a format that makes evolve happy (or easily mangleable to that format), and we could then get users to generate their own score sets.

(Yes I know they can do this today by keeping all their spam/ham, but it might be worth allowing users to do this trivially).

Just a random thought though, and definitely not something I'm going to work on in the short term :-)

Matt.
