Rolling back to the last released version of spambayes makes this problem go away.

Since there's been no response, I decided to try to debug this a little bit myself. I know little about the workings of IMAP, but the problem appears to be that sb_imapfilter isn't accounting for responses like this one: [('6 (BODY[] {3130}', 'Return-Path: <MAILER-DAEMON....'), ' UID 6)'] In particular, that last fragment is throwing it off. I don't know whether the real bug is in whatever gets passed to sb_imapfilter to be used as its "server" attribute, or whether its here. The following patch (which, given my scant knowledge, is almost certainly wrong) makes the problem disappear for me. I hope someone can at least follow up on this enough to tell me whether I need to learn more about IMAP ;-) Thanks, -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
