Re: [Spambayes] installing 1.0.4 in Outlook XP

2007-10-08 Thread Jesse Pelton
0.81 is ancient. I think the first order of business is to get everyone up to version 1.0.4 (if not the 1.1 alpha, which despite its alpha status is quite stable). Once you've installed it as administrator, go to the Troubleshooting Guide on the SpamBayes Help menu and look for the section titled

Re: [Spambayes] retrieving a deleted spam e-mail

2007-10-01 Thread Jesse Pelton
Whether you can retrieve deleted messages depends on your mail client. If it provides some sort of holding bin for deleted messages (a folder, trash can, recycle bin, or similar), you should be able to retrieve messages from there. Of course, once you empty such a bin, the messages are truly gone.

I don't think that's coming from SpamBayes. Maybe Outlook or your mail server adds that as a service of sorts; you could try contacting the administrator of your mail server. See http://mail.python.org/pipermail/spambayes/2007-September/021212.html for a recent discussion of a similar issue (with

That's spambayes-1.1a4-070629.exe? If so, I've been using it for some time (Outlook 2003 on XP) for some time. Or did you update the file and leave the name the same? SourceForge shows no downloads, but the file size matches the one I downloaded. Yes, I'm confused. -Original Message-

I don't think there's a way to kill Outlook's filtering altogether. I use a 1.1 alpha version of SpamBayes to work around this. The alphas allow you to tell SpamBayes to move ham as well as spam. I set up SpamBayes to move certain spam and possible spam into folders that I create for the purpose

IF you're using the Outlook plug-in, AND you're deliberately and correctly distinguishing between a spam folder and a junk folder, THEN I would guess that Outlook is putting your friends' messages in the junk folder, not SpamBayes. If you're using one of the 1.1 alphas, you can set up SpamBayes

That's because SpamBayes does not pay special attention to the sender's address. All the content of the message, including the sender, is ranked according to the probability that it is spam, based on your classification of earlier messages. The probability that the entire message is spam is

You can't, but you shouldn't worry about that fact. The address is just a small part of what SpamBayes looks at when deciding how to classify a message. This is good news, because it means that the odds are good that any message you receive from a given address will be properly categorized. It's
