Geoff,

Good idea...

If you check the FAQ documents that bogofilter includes, I know you'll
find info on min_dev and robx.  I don't think the random-words subject
is addressed :-<

If you, or anyone else, wants to put together an FAQ entry (using info
from the mailing list), I'll be glad to edit it and add it to the FAQ.

Now, I've got to go to work ...
