Just an FYI, an interesting spam-filter can be made easily by searching your
mail for web links.  Take the hostname and find the IP, then lookup the 
IP in a
DNS block-list, such as sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org.  By only looking at links you
reduce the chance of false positives to nearly 0, and its a bit less 
CPU hungry
than other methods like spamassasin.  Nearly 100% effective, and when 
used with
a local caching DNS server such as djb's dnscache, its really fast.

So (to get back on topic) this would make a great addition to 
MiNT-capable email
clients.
