That's called "TMDA".  Look on sourceforge.  Some people (for example
me) won't be bothered to jump through those hoops just to send you a
message.

Other solutions include spamassassin and spambayes.  If you don't yet
know about SA, what internet are you connected to?  Spambayes is a new
implementation from the python team.  It is based on the theory
explained at http://www.paulgraham.com/spam.html

You can reinvent another wheel if you want.  Personally I don't have
the time for that.
