Summary: What about classifying non-spam instead

Initial Comment:
Hello,

Before training your database, every mail is passing as
HAM.
With training, your filter can decide if SPAM or HAM.

Have you ever thought starting from the other extreme:
starting with everything classified as SPAM and with
training of ONLY good messages as HAM.

Could that make it easier ?

Regards
Michael Engel
