any opinions of bogofilter-milter.pl

[Jesse Trucks]

I would love to see a binary implementation of a bogomilter. Getting
procmail out of the loop for actually running bogofilter would seriously
reduce overhead on the system.

I can't program my way out of a wet paper bag or this would already be
working and released to the public.
