Why is this not an option???....learning the engine will yield a sizable
benefit even using pulicly available corpus if getting users to assist in
training is impossible.  I don't mean to beat the BYES drum too hard, but
you will be hard pressed to find a more effective solution than a bayes
based engine that evaluates multpile words, combined with the use of DCC and
razor as well as an integrated scoring system that is "tweakable" like SA.

Perhaps it will...the guys on the SA list are super helpful too...just a
thought.
