When the plugin api for spamassassin comes out, their will be a drastic
increase in bayesian scoring because of the inclusion of, the three
additional bayes scorers.
Dspam,
CRM14
Bogofilter.

They all generally use a better bayesian database then the default SA.
By better I mean slightly lower FP and FN.
Devin Nate coded up a bogofilter plugin for SA 2.55.

It is just a matter of time until additional bayesian addons are included
in SA as part of SA 2.70 or SA 3.0.
