I had the idea of writing a program like this a while ago. Unfortunately, I never had the time to put the project forward, until I needed an excuse to learn Python. Well, this is my first program and also my excuse. :)

ASK was created by me, Marco Paganini, but Kurt Werle joined the project for a few months, bringing important contributions.

Many other Anti-Spam projects can be found on Freshmeat. You can even combine some of them with ASK, by using procmail.
