If something breaks, many times Skip Montanaro will fix it, as he monitors this list; however, I don't believe any new development is happening.

If you are not bound to the Outlook plugin, the sb_server version will work with just about any email client. Configuration and training are done through a web page (http://localhost:8880). If using Windows 7 or above, the recommended installation directory is C:\spambayes. Do not use the default install directory.

There is also a script in the install directory to install SpamBayes as a Windows service, which I find to be a good option, especially when set to start automatically.

Like Fred, I intend to run it until it no longer works. It's that good, although the proliferation of encrypted mail makes the job a bit harder by hiding the body of the message. The same applies when the body of the email is an image, something many spammers do. That being said, SpamBayes works well for me, even in a business environment where one server classifies mail for many users.

which isn't to say the authors support it. I've seen no official
notice either here or on its web page regarding whether the authors
have abandoned it or not.

Having said that, I'm still using it on Linux, and until something
better comes along (or it gets so old it can't be made to work anymore)
will continue doing so.

Hello,

I was wondering if Spambayes is still supported. Working under Windows 8? 
Windows 10?
Are there new
