There's your answer as to why Bayes isn't scoring for you. Bayes will only kick in after you have learned 200 spam AND 200 ham messages. You've already fed it bunches of spam but how many explict ham messages have you fed it? Feed it a couple hundred ham messages (but not from this list ;) and all should be well. -- Dave Funk University of Iowa <dbfunk (at) engineering.uiowa.edu> College of Engineering 319/335-5751 FAX: 319/384-0549 1256 Seamans Center Sys_admin/Postmaster/cell_admin Iowa City, IA 52242-1527 #include <std_disclaimer.h> Better is not better, 'standard' is better.
