+ How do I set up SpamBayes and Outlook Express?
+ ----------------------------------------------
+
+ 1. Download the latest version of SpamBayes from `the download page`_.
+ 2. Run the installer - you want "sb_server", not the Outlook plug-in.
+ 3. Open the SpamBayes configuration page at http://localhost:8880/config
(you can do this via the tray application, or just type that address into your
browser).
+ 4. Enter your POP3 server's name in the top box ("Remote Servers").
+ 5. Enter "110" (no quotes) in the second box ("SpamBayes ports").
+ 6. Tick the "unsure" and "spam" boxes in the "Notate to" option, about
halfway down the page.
+ 7. Click the "Save configuration" button at the end of the page.
+ 8. Open Outlook Express.
+ 9. From the "Tools" menu, choose "Accounts".
+ 10. Select your mail account and click "Properties".
+ 11. Click the "Servers" tab.
+ 12. Change the "incoming mail server" from the name of your POP3 server to
"localhost" (no quotes).
+ 13. Click "OK".
+ 14. Click "Close".
+
+ Everything should now be setup. Try doing a send/receive - mail should
+ arrive as normal, but any mail that SpamBayes is unsure about will have
+ 'unsure,' (1.0.x) or '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (1.1) in the recipient list, and
+ any mail that SpamBayes thinks is spam will have 'spam,' (1.0.x) or
+ '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (1.1) in the recipient list. You can use Outlook
Express's
+ Rules Wizard to create rules that automatically move these messages to
+ other folders.
+
+ If you have any more queries, please look through the rest of this FAQ,
+ and if you can't find the answer, ask `the mailing list`_.
