  Description     : advanced Bayesian anti-spam local delivery agent

DSPAM (as in De-Spam) is an open-source project to create a new kind of
anti-spam mechanism, and is currently effective as both a server-side
agent for UNIX email servers and a developer's library for mail clients,
other anti-spam tools, and similar projects requiring drop-in spam
filtering.

The DSPAM agent masquerades as the email server's local delivery agent
and filters/learns spams using an advanced Bayesian statistical approach
(based on Baye's theorem of combined probabilities) which provides an
administratively maintenance-free, easy-learning Anti-Spam service
custom tailored to each individual user's behavior. Advanced because on
top of standard Bayesian filtering is also incorporated the use of
Chained Tokens, de-obfuscation, and other enhancements. DSPAM works
great with Sendmail and Exim, and should work well with any other MTA
that supports an external local delivery agent (postfix, qmail, etc.)
