For this project I built a simple spam-vs-ham email classifier using the SpamAssassin public corpus. I walk through how I loaded the raw email files, cleaned the text, created a term–document representation, trained a model, and evaluated how well it separates spam from legitimate (ham) email. This was my first hands-on experience with document classification, so I also include a short reflection on what I learned and the questions it raised for me about how spam filters work in the real world.
