looks like spammers are using <style> (some random text from books) </style> to try to poison baysian

seems text inside of <style></> doesn't show up on the page, and if they wrap their spam in style tags, they can hide the background noise.

I also noticed that valid emails won't have style tags AFTER THE </head> or after the <body> tag, is this right?

would tests that checked for <body>.*<style> inside html portion be a valid test of spam?
