That's because it's such high quality code. ;-)

Patches are definitely welcome.  I'm extremely busy at the moment
but I will be glad to review changes.

I actually don't use sb_mailsort.py anymore.  The problem was that I
was receiving so much crap that I no longer could review the spam
folder.  I now have a SMTP reverse proxy that uses Spambayes and a
CDB database.  Bouncing high scoring spam is necessary for me
because I can't review it all.
