That's the plan. I have a fairly good home-brew neural-net based filter for email spam
and network 'threats' that's in control of the firewall and a front-end smtp
server with diversion and analysis. I was going to apply it to an incoming newsfeed and
get it learning even more.

Understand that all of that flood of crap (nearly 15,000 spam posts a day to c.o.v.) is
coming through to other news providers, so your own server won't save you without
adding filtering.
Sadly, Tin doesn't have a way to filter on injector. Sigh.
