Hmmm, my CRM114 setups seems to differentiate quite well between those. But 
maybe thats different with german "solicited commercial e-mail". CRM114 
keeps them apart from real spam quite reliably.

Nonetheless I like

as an idea. I thought CRM114 could actually replace manually setting up 
mail filters that sort mail into folders. I just drag mails in folders and 
CRM114 learns it.

But as my last C programming has been ages ago and I would need to work 
myself into CRM114 code and regexp handling and all the statistical stuff 
in there - I decided not to even try to implement it by now ;).
