12/31   Uh, is it me, or it seems that the spammers are getting better and
        getting through spamassassin, a lot more frequently in the past
        few weeks?
        \_ ifile
           \_ Alas, no.  Most of the things I have getting through SA are
              dictionary attacks that fuck the Bayesian net.  Ifile, which
              _only_ depends on this will do even worse.
              \_ Using the two in combination gives near perfect results.
                 \_ What does ifile do that the SA Bayesian code doesn't?
                    \_ Not sure, but I'm not having any problems with spam.
                       The one thing I can claim is that the ifile database
                       is vastly smaller on disk than SA; currently it's
                       < 300Kb.
