Almost 100% if you look at a wide variety of tokens from multiple
attributes.
I can't believe that, or I'm missing something. Almost every spam I see
contains words that also appear in ham. Things like "this" or "invoice"
or "regards" or "dear".
What am I missing?
I believe you're missing Marc's definition of "token".
...and it looks like we're venturing into the "SA Bayes multiple-word
token support" realm (as a surrogate).
