Spambayes is released as open source code, under the Python Software
Foundation license. Feel free to include it on as many CDROMs as you
wish. 

There's no-one who "owns" the code that would be able to send in a 
fax of confirmation - well, the PSF could, as the copyright is assigned
to them. But I'd say the chances of them doing this are close to zero.

See the FAQ:
http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/faq.html#what-is-the-license-how-much-does-it-cost-can-i-pay-anyway

Or, a direct link to the license itself:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/spambayes/spambayes/LICENSE.txt

(note to anyone with CVS access at the moment (i.e. not me) the FAQ 
erroneously uses the acronym PSA, instead of PSF. I'll fix tomorrow 
if no-one else gets to it first).
