Bug Description
On the python.org mail server we gate between comp.lang.python and
<email address hidden>. Incoming mail gets all sorts of scrutiny
(including, but not limited to, SpamBayes checks). Currently no checks of
any kind are performed on incoming Usenet posts. This patch provides
SpamBayes checking if Spambayes is installed and configured on the system
running gate_news. We are currently running 2.1.10. The patch is against
2.1.11.

Here's a slightly updated patch. I couldn't tell what the admin doc source was (both txt and html
seemed generated to me), so I just edited the html. Also, I updated the gate_news change
to require the BAYESCUSTOMIZE environment variable to be set and added a FIXME comment
about holding suspected spam for review instead of dropping them.
