[PD] spam on the pd-announce list

[Josh Steiner]

we are drifting pretty OT here, but i'll throw in my $0.02.  i used to 
use spamassasin, but i switched to mozilla mail's built in spam 
filtering.  it uses bayenesian techniques which i find much more easily 
trainable.  that mozilla reacts well to the new sneakier ways that 
spammers are using to get around a lot of spam filters.
