I'm not a Windows nor an Outlook Express user, so take this with a grain of
salt... You might try annotating the subject instead of the to field
(option: notate_subject). You might also try setting the header_*_string
options to something else. I don't know if the header notation stuff looks
at those values or not. I have them prefixed with my machine name, titan,
e.g.:
[Headers]
include_evidence: True
header_spam_string: titan-spam
header_ham_string: titan-ham
header_unsure_string: titan-unsure
That way I can distinguish X-SpamBayes-Classification headers added by
different machines. You might want to get rid of "ham", "spam" and "unsure"
altogether:
[Headers]
include_evidence: True
header_spam_string: YouSlimebag!
header_ham_string: You'reMyFriend!
header_unsure_string: WhoAreYou?
Finally, make sure that Outlook Express's filter rule is properly
restrictive. It should be filtering on "spam,", not just "spam". You
shouldn't see "spam," in a domain name.
