It seems an obvious conclusion from the preceding sentences in the paragraph. When spam is getting BAYES_00 or BAYES_01, it's a strong indication that some spam has been mislearned as ham. Usually such mislearning happens because of autolearning, though it could also happen by mistakes in manual learning. -- Keith C. Ivey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Washington, DC
