What's your data for the classifier? The words in the item as a unigram (with an independence assumption)?

I was using the spambayes package. After poking around a bit, it seems that they (somewhat reasonably) don't tokenize the wordstream themselves, but require you to provide the tokenized version. As a result, it was classifying based on letters and not words, giving expectedly unpredictable results.

There's a Da Vinci Code-esque plot in here somewhere.
