Razor is working fine so far



Vipul's Razor (apt-get install razor), a nifty distributed spam filter,
is easy to set up, and so far has been working fine for me. If a spam
makes it through, reporting can be done with a single keystroke, and you
have an incentive to make the report because that insures that others
who use the razor won't have to see that spam. 

This package was mentioned in Debian Weekly News; I'm just sharing the
fact that it was easy for a non-technical user to set up and operate. It
took about 20 minutes total to figure out how to use it and to integrate
it into procmail and mutt.

If enough people were to use this tool, it looks like it could become
extraordinarily effective. Perhaps there's a catch, but I hope not.
