    I didn't mean "naive" pejoratively. I thought it was just a descriptive term for the rough-and-ready Paul Graham approach. I agree, there doesn't seem to be much benefit in more sophisticated (and statistically correct) approaches.

    I'm sure you didn't, Stephen. Just putting in my 2c for the edumication of the interwebz.

  • BenWilson,

    Oh, and God bless Paul Graham. I'm impressed that using his ideas my system had no problems at all with image spam. I still have no idea why, can only conclude that it picked up on textual tags that were statistically linked to those spams. And like him, I don't care to find out - let maths just do it's magic (until it breaks, of course).
