Pattern Classification Frameworks?

Two Bayesian classifiers are SpamBayes (http://spambayes.sf.net) and
Reverend Thomas (http://www.divmod.org/projects/reverend).
IMO the latter will be easier to play with.

A good book about NLP is http://nlp.stanford.edu/fsnlp/ which have a
chapter about
text classification. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tom/mlbook.html has some
good coverage on
the subject as well.

HTH.
