I read the FAQ and Configuration Guide, but doing what I understood did not work. Below is what I did (with Outlook 2002 closed):
Created directory: D:\Documents and Settings\Bill\Outlook\SpamBayes Data Moved default_message_database.db and default_bayes_database.db from C:\Documents and Settings\Bill\Application Data\SpamBays to D:\Documents and Settings\Bill\Outlook\SpamBayes Data Created the file named default_configuration.ini and placed it in C:\Documents and Settings\Bill\Application Data\SpamBays with the following two lines: [General] data_directory=D:\ Documents and Settings\Bill\Outlook\SpamBayes Data My understanding was that when I opened Outlook SpamBayes would read the default_configuration.ini file in the Application Directory path and then use the data bases from the D: path. However, when opening up Outlook I get the message that SpamBayes is not configured. I thought the spaces in the directory name in default_configuration.ini might be the problem, so I changed it (and moved data files) to D:\SPAM. But that did not work either. What am I missing here? My goal is to have the data bases on a drive and path that I regularly back up, and also share that database (as well as the Outlook pst file) on a laptop via Briefcase. (I only use one machine or the other before updating briefcase so Outlook will not try to run on both machines on the same data at once) Thanks for anyone who can help! Bill
