AFAIK soundex will check for similar sounding words. I am looking for simillar phrases.
For example

1. "SQL server help request"
2. "Re: Re: SQL Server help   request - followup"
3. "FW: forwarded for your attention: SQL Server help request "

My application will be a helpdesk system where I want to check for subject line, search for similar instances that happen in past and do something.
