Doesn’t sound kosher to me
The current version of Akismet (trapper of 500 spams at this site at last count) has a handy Spam vs. Ham counter.
Um, what?
Spam most people know as the unwanted commercial comments on their blog, its counterpart we call ham to indicate legitimate comments. On the Akismet mistakes side, missed spam is pretty self-explanitory [sic], but a false positive is what it’s called when we incorrectly identify a legitimate comment as spam. (Which hopefully happens exceedingly rarely.) Also, we’re sorry about the vegetarian thing.
For the record, Akismet is batting .992 here, and spam is leading ham by a couple of percentage points.

Spam was actually pretty good, when it only came in a can. But I also like fruit cake.
