Summary: default_bayes_customize.ini not handled right

Initial Comment:
After I upgraded from an old version I saw this line in the 
log:
Warning: option 
experimental_ham_spam_imbalance_adjustment in 
section Classifier is deprecated

So I found the file default_bayes_customize.ini in my 
data directory, and removed the offedning line.  But 
then I wondered why I did not get a new version of 
default_bayes_customize.ini as part of the install.  (I ran 
the *.exe installer.)

Based on what is in the source file for 
default_bayes_customize.ini I expected there woul dbe a 
copy of it written into my program directory, i.e. 
\program files\spambayes\ .  But there wasn't!
I think that is wrong.

# This is the INI file for the *Bayes Engine* as used by 
the Outlook addin.  
# It is NOT where configuration information is stored for 
the addin - see 
# "[Profile Name].ini" for these settings.

# Only options which Outlook requires different from the 
SpamBayes 
# defaults are listed here.  Thus, there will be very few 
in the installed 
# version, but you may list any configuration option valid 
for the SpamBayes 
# engine in this file.  Again, these are different from the 
Outlook addin 
# configuration options.

# This file exists in the SpamBayes program directory, 
and may optionally
# exist in the SpamBayes data directory.  If you wish to 
make changes to
# the default options, setting the option in a file in your 
data directory
# will persist even when SpamBayes is upgraded.  If you 
change the version in
# the SpamBayes program directory, it will be upgraded 
along with SpamBayes, 
# so your changes will be lost.  Options in the data 
directory file have 
# precedence over the app directory file.

You're correct - there should have been a copy installed
into the /Program Files/SpamBayes directory, and wasn't. 
I've checked in a fix for this, so it will be from the next
version (1.0rc2/1.0).

Note that you'd still end up with the warning message
anyway, though, because the installer leaves everything in
the data directory alone (deliberately), and that's where
there was the deprecated option (which does nothing even
enabled these days anyway).
