I have a very large training corpus, so I'm seeing well-
separated distributions of good versus spam probs, with a
sprinkling of "unsures" scattered through the middle. An
uncertain cutoff at 3 sigma from the means should work, but this
notion needs some testing. That chi2 test is definitely on the
drawing boards, even if only for comparison purposes...
Death To Spam!
