I just set it up on Solaris 9 today.

It didn't like the version of python I had installed (Python 2.2 (#1,
May 19 2003, 18:47:03) from the Software Companion CD that Sun provided.
It's in /opt/sfw/bin

The first problem was that the email package was too old, and I fixed
this by following the instructions in SB README.txt file.

I was seeing some other problems, and I'm not that familiar with python,
so I decided to take the easy way out. I grabbed the latest Python pkg
from ActiveState and installed it. Default location is /opt/ASpy23/

So, you've extracted the SB source somewhere and cd to that directory.

/opt/ASpy23/bin/python setup.py install

mkdir ~/.spambayes

cd ~/.spambayes

/opt/ASpy23/bin/python /opt/ASpy23/bin/sb_server.py

Open and web browser and  go to localhost:8880

Configure SB to your liking.

You can, of course, write an init script to start SB, but I haven't
gotten that far yet.  :-)
