Spambayes is written in Python, not in C. If you understand Python, then
you could probably port the relevant code to C (although why you would want
to is another question). You can also call the Python code from C (the
Python documentation has information about doing this), but again, it's
dubious that you would want to do this. You could also run spambayes as a
separate process (using sb_xmlrpcserver.py, probably), and have your C
program communicate with it.
You might be better off finding a Bayesian filter coded in C that you can
use. There are links to other Bayesian spam filters from our website:
