Comment Re:Dirty Spammer Tricks (Score 1) 249

I agree about the problems with messages with only images in them, but munging "the spammy words with spaces, numbers, and misspellings" is more of an argument against traditional keyword based filters. Baysian filters as I understand them should become more effective in this case after the first spam.

For instance if I write a spam to you and use the word pen1s instead of penis that can easily be marked as spam from the next spammer that uses that, however you may get email that has the word penis. Thus the next time the spammer uses pen1s it is simple for the Baysian filter to catch this.
