A friend of mine not on the list asked me to forward along a couple of
questions - and I'm also curious to know the answers.

Basically, he asks if the bayes filter assigns more weight to URI's and
phone numbers, since spammers are much less able to change these than
they are the actual message text.

And if they are NOT assigned more weight, they should be.  "if a message
is fed to the bayes db as spam, the URL's should have additional weight,
such that if they're found in future messages, the URL indicates with
more certainty than the rest of the content whether the message is spam
or not."
