Some time around 08/14/2004 23:28:14, I think I heard Thomas Fernandez say:

Have you read at all the entire thread, or did you just decided to come in and offer 
your insightful comments at just this point?  I'm talking about the "regarding 
threshold" value and how is it used, i.e. given the bayesian probability of a message 
what *ADDITIONAL* computation occurs with that parameter.  Do you know?  Do you think 
Mr. Bayes would have had enough visionary insight to see how this BayesIt-specific 
parameter was used by Alexey in his plugin?

DJ>> I can assume it is the product of its initial probability by the
DJ>> "regarding threshold" value, is that true?

What is not that simple? The bayesian algorithm or how the "regarding threshold" is 
used by the plugin?  Because, if you have noticed from the context of the comment, I 
am talking about the parameters in the ADVANCED.INI file and how they are implemented.
