[Spambayes] Why Improve Bayesian

[Bill Yerazunis]

   From: dont bother <dontbotherworld at yahoo.com>

   Hey heres is quick question for you guys,
   I always wonder whats the need for inventing new
   techniques when most of the bayesian filters are
   giving accuracy >99.7%?
   Is that in time these bayesian techniques or method
   will become less effective?
   Thanks
   Dont

The reason is that humans are 99.84% accurate, so you want to be
MUCH more accurate than that, so you never have to read
the spam folder.

If you can make it 99.999% accurate, then you can save a lot
of time and storage.
