Mark,

Me and a friend of mine at work were discussing this just a couple weeks
ago.  He mentioned a spell checker, and then the ratio of misspelled
words against the number of correctly spelled words, or something to
that affect.  It seems like a good idea in theory, but I don't know if
it would fly in practice? I don't know what the resource spike would be..

| Here I am thinking out loud while running through my spam log, would a
| perl interface to a spell checker with some sort of weighting help kill
| more of this junk?
|
| i.e if there are 100 words in the body, and 75% are misspelled, add it
| to the score...
|
| comments, good idea, bad idea?
