Cool, I didn't know it had a name.

I was under the impression spamassassin has a Bayesian plugin thesadays. 
  I use Mozilla, but to use a Bayesian filter with pine, you'll have to 
make a mailbox called junk, move known junk mail to it and tell the 
filter where your junk folder and inbox are.

And no matter what the temptation, do not automatically move flagged 
junk mail to the junk folder.

This page appears to have the complete setup details.  Never having used 
spamassassin, I don't know how good it is.
