It's called POPFile (see http://popfile.sourceforge.net/) and is
open-source freeware. It requires typically about 1,000 messages to be
treated before it gets to know what your correspondents' styles and
terminology are and achieves % accuracies in the upper 90s. I've been
using it for over a year, now. To give you an idea, on the odd occasion
that someone sends a spammy message to this forum, even related to our
biz, it can usually pick it out as such. (There is a fairish chance it
may consider this message as spam, because it doesn't contain any of the
usual TechNet terminology, although it will see "Engelmeier", "Ellis"
and "TechNet" in the header - and now in the body - and decide otherwise.)

I think POPFile is not the best thing since sliced bread, it's the best
thing since God invented apples :-)

Best regards,

Brian
