Hi Guys,
As I'm sure the postmasters among us are well-aware, in order to keep
my Bayesian filter working efficiently, it's occasionally necessary to
retrain it for new tacks the spammers have invented. My question is
thus: Is it "safe" and/or wise to train with only -spam input? Our
non-spam profile hasn't changed much, so the previous -ham training
ought to still be valid...right? Or do I need to somehow balance the
training "sessions" with equal parts -spam and -ham even though the -ham
still looks about the same?
Thanks as always,
~Brian
