Because without a few hundred messages, it would be completely and utterly useless? It would be like meeting an airline pilot who was 5'7" tall and had a scar on his left cheek and wore his hat backwards. Bayes would think that scars on left cheeks were as reliable an indicator of airline-pilotness as was an airline uniform. All statistics are based upon having a statistically significant sample, and to tell the truth, a corpus of 200 hams / 200 spams is severely stretching it.

LOL thanks for that. I needed a good laugh today :)


What you say is true of course...(as well as funny)
