[Mimedefang] Anyone seeing sneaky spam?

[Dave Williss]

Oh, now there's a thought!  Spell-check the message before
running it through SA. For any misspelled words, take the
closest match.  The number of misspelled words could be
given a score and the "corrected" words might have a better
chance of being recognized.

part of what it does.  Somewhere it mentions off-spellings, the only part I
don't recall is mention of white space in the middle of words.  I can't find
any white space injected in any words in my spam folder to verify if the
bayes_filter has had any affect.
