So essentially you are agreeing with me; that heuristic-based filters are obsolete. This is evidenced by the fact that you're interested in turning SA into more or less a Bayesian filter.
From what others have told me, it looks like SA devel is actually going
in that direction too - which is good. My only qualm now is that if SA wants to be a Bayesian filter, go ahead and do it and get rid of all the rulesets so they can focus their attention on enhancing the Bayesian. On Tue, 2003-10-07 at 16:14, Shawn McMahon wrote:

Because true Bayesian filtering performs a huge majority of the same tests that SA performs, SA's own ruleset easily waters down any bayesian findings whenever there are opposing values between the two. For example, a pine MUA...SA thinks aThose values are fully configurable. You're confusing obsolescent design with a PEBKAC.
