And since the $29.95 costing Spamnix also is a learning-based spam
blocker --according to their website-- I expect you'll get similar
results with Thunderbird's Bayesian based spam filtering (and for free).
There are several extensions for Thunderbird available, already, and you
can always develop your own (see
<http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Building_an_Extension>),
with
Javascript, not Java, and a whole bunch of other XML based techniques.
