Summary: Multiple Inboxes seem to be mishandled

Initial Comment:
I have a primary exchange account for my Outlook 2K.  I 
also monitor a varying number of other mailboxes when 
folks are gone or I'm working in a project area that has 
an application outlook mailbox.  (e.g. SQL Mail and the 
outlook mailbox assigned to our Intranet).  I have an 
Outlook profile for my main mailbox as the default and a 
secondary one for the Intranet mail account.

Here is what happens;
When someone with global enterprise send capabilities 
sends that global message, The Outlook plug-in for 
SpamBayes handles all of them and they appear as only 
one message in my Inbox or one of the SpamBayes 
classification folders.  Anyone else seen this happen?

Also, it appears, but I have not completely confirmed 
that any inbound mail to the intranet account shows up 
as above, MY inbox or Spambayes classification folders.

So, do we have a bug, a "feature" or do I have a wonky 
system because it is a developer machine??

Apologies for the delay (this probably should have been in
bugs and not feature requests?).

I'm not clear on what you mean by the problem with sending a
global message.  Is this message meant to appear in lots of
different mailboxes, and it doesn't?  If so, is that
definitely SpamBayes?  It doesn't get involved in delivering
(or receiving) mail, so that would be odd.

Does the rest of it mean that no matter which Exchange
account is being filter messages only end up in one
unsure/spam folder?  If so, then that's the desired
behaviour - every user has only one unsure/spam folder, and
here you are one user filtering a number of different
folders.  If you want all users to have their own
unsure/spam folder, then they each need to be running the
plug-in, or you need to use some sort of server-side
filtering instead.  The messages should all "recover from
spam" back to the right mailbox, though.

Going back over my posts, I noticed this.  One update:  
Multiple mailboxes with OL2003 and POP3 servers still hit the 
same inbox, spam or unsure folders, no matter what the 
destination account is.   One semi work-around is to set an 
OL rule up to shake and bake the destination folders and 
move the messages based on the recipient.
