Interesting new spam detecting software:::::

To: politech@politechbot.com
Subject: FC: Deconstructing Richard Gephardt's releases, by SpamAssassin
The Well installed SpamAssassin while I was on vacation in Big Sur. It flags possible spam by inserting headers that your mail reader can use to segregate suspect email. SpamAssassin works pretty well; I've only seen about 5-10 percent false positives. In terms of false negatives, it manages to snare about 70-75 percent of spam, based on my informal review so far.
I'm on House Democratic Leader Richard Gephardt's press list. Read on for SpamAssassin's deconstruction of a Gephardt missive from this morning.
