Christine, my wife and I have been using Spambayes for about two weeks
now.  In that period of time we have received over 8000 spam emails.
Not once has Spambayes identified a valid email as spam.  The way I
understand the program works is that it has to classify an email as 100%
spam before it will move it to a spam folder.  I haven't paid really
close attention to the suspect folder - and everything in it has been
spam ; but it looks like if an email is 40% or greater, but less than
100%, Spambayes moves the email to the suspect folder.  Spambayes does
not delete anything, at least in MS Outlook; it simply moves spam and
suspect emails to the appropriate folder.  Are you on a network?  It is
possible that the network is running some sort of anti-spam program.  
 
Just my $0.02.

Subject: [Spambayes] Missing emails?
 
Is it possible for my junk emails to be deleted even before they get
sent to a junk mail folder?  Or suspect junk mail?  Newcoming emails pop
up in the bottom right hand corner of my computer for a split second and
then disappear and I can't find them anywhere.  Albeit they are mostly
junk email, but shouldn't I have the final decision on what to delete?
