Spam Bays and WinXP 64 bit
by Peleg Lapid July 23, 2006

July 23, 2006

Hello I was using SpamBays on for several years. Lately I switched to Intel 64 bit computer (EM64T) with WIN XP pro 64 bit. After installing the Spam Bays, the outlook (last edition with all fixes) crashes and disables the Spam Bays. Is there a way to correct the situation. Many thanks Peleg Lapid

SpamBayes programming consultant needed
by Robert Savage July 22, 2006

July 22, 2006

We are looking for a consultant to write an interface between SpamBayes and an e-mail client written in C. This interface should do filtering, which will consist of adding the X-Spambayes-Classification tag to the header of the mail body, and should do training. Ideally, you would make a COM with SpamBayes, having those interface functions for filtering (actually scanning) and training. Robert Savage VisitorVille.com mayor(a)visitorville.com

Two mail boxes, one user
by David.Joy＠sungard.com July 21, 2006

July 21, 2006

Hi, And thanks for a great performer. My question is what will happen if I want to filter spam on two mailboxes that I have access rights to, in Outlook. (2003 11.8002 SP2 XP) If the other mailbox is a shared one, with other users also wishing to benefit from the spam filtering (=we all agree what is spam), who should run Spambayes, and are there authorisation issues?

So spamcount would be 0 if the current word has never been seen in a trained spam message, and similarly for hamcount. A word will only appear in the training database if it has appeared in at least one message so you should never have a word with both counts 0. The _worddistanceget() function in the Classifier class deals with this by assigning a default probability to any word that does not appear in the training data, so the probability calculation should only run on trained words. It's hard to say how the code might have ended up in the probability() function with a word that wasn't in the training data. It might help to print which word produced each of the spamcount/hamcount pairs and compare those against the training data to see if there are any that don't appear in the training. It would also be interesting to know if you have ever tried to remove a message from the training data (i.e. untrain the message). When a message is removed, each word is checked to see if both counts have gone to 0 (see the _remove_msg function) and the word should be removed from the training data in that case. I see that you are using the Postgres storage engine. I'm guessing a little here, but I don't think Postgres has received as much testing as some of the other storage formats so it might be possible that the record didn't actually get deleted from the training database once both counts went to 0. -- Kenny Pitt

Re: [spambayes-dev] [Spambayes] SpamBayes installation error
by Mark Hammond July 10, 2006

Hi all, I'm redirecting this support request to the -dev list. According to my CVS logs, the FlashWindowEx problem with NT was fixed back in October 2004, and the fix included with pywin32-203. I've just confirmed that build 208 of pywin32 does successfully load win32gui on NT. Is it possible that 1.0rc2 was shipped with pywin32-202 or earlier? If there is some issue preventing an upgrade to pywin32, let me know and I'll help resolve it.
