I would think that the actual machine learning stuff would be the hard
part. I stopped using Thunderbird's Bayesian spam tagging feature
years ago, when it started sorting emails from smart people in with
the spam. The computer thought that the smart people were using long
words with a similar frequency to the random dictionary words that
padded out the spam messages.
I haven't worked with machine learning either, but I'm guessing it's
not as simple as feeding a pre-tagged data set into a stock Bayesian
filter library.
