My results are:

 Jesper Harder (spamwash.el+patch): 0.995423
 Original spam-stat.el (ngnus-0.1): 0.995664
 Andrew Cohen (patch)             : 0.997591

Each time I installing the version to be tested, training and then ran
spam-stat-test-directory on a spam-group with 4151 emails in it.

I noticed that Andrew Cohens version was the only one that bothered to
decrypt the 300 GnuPG encrypted ham-messages that are a part of my
ham-collection during training. Maybe that could account for the
difference? Maybe not...

I'm amazed at the originals fare in this try, previously my feeling
was that not handling base64 made things much worse.

Maybe it's because I've moved 28000 emails out of my spam-dir
recently...


  Best regards,
