Well, couldn't help myself...

I'm new to dspam, but: there's been reports of well over 99% accuracy
in detecting spam with one instance of dspam alone. How would two
dspam "layers" be able to achieve better? I'd say, there's no way.

And what's wrong with well over 99%? I'm happy, my users are happy.
What more could you ask for? DSPAM rules.

Just my 2 cents worth...
