-----------------------------------------

Thanks Greg. I've got some preliminary modifications ready, but I need to set up some test cases. ETA's probably a week or two depending on what else breaks.

> Much of the recent spam to the lists that I moderate use cyrillic or some middle eastern character set (hebrew? arabian?). We do not allow non-English on *most* of our mailing lists, so such messages should have a seriously high spam score. The same would apply to most/all non-latin charsets (eg. also chinese/japanese/etc).
> AOO may have lists where such is allowed, so it may be necessary to have an "escape hatch" for the filter on a per-list basis.
> In email, Chris mentioned that SpamAssassin appears to have some language-based filters.
