I have been using R-F for a while.  I find that it is not as good as 
classifying spam as prior versions were.

I am beginning to wonder if there is something with the database 
reorganization that has hosed me up.  I switched to Fischer at the same 
point.  So I made the mistake of making two changes at once.

But since then, I am getting a lot of spam with a classification of zero.

SPAM: Trademark for spiced, chopped ham manufactured by Hormel.
spam: Unsolicited, Bulk E-mail, where e-mail can be interpreted generally 
to mean electronic messages designed to be read by an individual, and it 
can include Usenet, SMS, AIM, etc.  But if it is not all three of 
Unsolicited, Bulk, and E-mail, it simply is not spam. Misusing the term 
plays into the hands of the spammers, since it causes confusion, and 
spammers thrive on  confusion. Spam is not speech, it is an action, like 
theft, or vandalism. If you were not confused, would you patronize a spammer?
