This is, unfortunately, a known issue that we are (still!) trying to determine the cause of. Until we do, the solution is to retrain from scratch, building a fresh database. =Tony Meyer

Resetting the toolbar should work. (Right click on the toolbar, click customize, then select the standard toolbar, then click reset). =Tony Meyer

RE: [Spambayes] spambayes filter - won't "remeber" my SPAM directory

If that's the case, then what's probably happening is that the config file is not saving. To get around this, just select the folder, and shut Outlook down, making sure that it is completely gone. If you can't select the folder at all, or it forgets it immediately, then it's something else. Look in the troubleshooting.html file (accessible via the 'about' link in the main dialog) and find the instructions for getting hold of the log file(s). They should have more information about what is going wrong. With the 002 release, there is no config file that you can enter the folder name into. Even with the next release, when there is such a config file, you would have to know the Outlook store & entry ids, which is pretty unlikely. =Tony Meyer
