What's the best open-source Java Bayesian spam filter library?

Question

In other answers at Stackoverflow it's been suggested that Weka is good, but there are others (Classifier4j, jBNC, Naiban).

Does anyone have actual experience with these?

Weka is awesome, but Classifier4J is probably closer to what you want, since it's more aimed at text recognition.

Classifier4J hasn't been updated in 5 years! I am not using that. – Mike Pone Apr 06 '10 at 14:19

You could also have a look at the still very new Apache Mahout project.
