    SpamAssassin suffered a very bad case of Featuritis almost the day it
    was released. Adding a Bayesian analyser to it won't make it any
    better. Besides it cannot do a proper job because it cannot alone
    classify messages and that means you'll have to get everyone who wants
    to use this feature to forward all their spam back to a special input
    address for it instead of just deleting it.
