Hello All, Please forgive my ignorance, but I don't fully understand just how Bayes works.
I dutifully feed all the spam (and ham) I get into sa-learn and generally Bayes works pretty well. I am a little concerned however that at this moment I seem to be getting bombarded with Russian spam. It currently outweighs all other spam by about 100:1 My worry is that Bayes will eventually come to believe that only Russian spam is *really* spam as it will, if the current trend continues, overwhelm the other spam in the Bayes DB. Am I worrying unnecessarily, or should I make efforts to "balance" the spam I am feeding to bayes? Thanks in advance Mark
