Spambayes needs admin privileges to install
by Amedee Van Gasse (amedee.be) May 4, 2009

Hello list, Some of you know that I'm a Linux user, but at work I'm forced to use MS Outlook 2007. When I try to install with the exe, I get the message "You must be logged in as an administrator when installing this program." Strange, because strictly speaking spambayes is a user tool, not a system tool. It shouldn't need elevated privileges. How can I manually install Spambayes? I also downloaded the zip file, but it isn't obvious for me what I should do next. I searched the archives, but I didn't find anything interesting or helpful. Kind regards, Amedee

Anybody heard of 3D Mailbox Light?
by skip＠pobox.com April 29, 2009

April 29, 2009

I came across 3D Mailbox (and its Light version) in a Google Alert I set up for SpamBayes: http://www.3dmailbox.com/ http://www.3dmailbox.com/light/ I'd never heard of it before. Looks like they have SpamBayes very tightly integrated. Skip

I want to delete from the Spam folder to "delete as spam", but it only allows me " recover from span". What am I not doing when I try to configure spambays? Thanks.

Well I know most of you guys are probably *nix people...I'm on windoze. Maybe my command line syntax isn't right As I said in the OP, if I run sb_filter and paste the text of the email in, it works. If I type sb_filter < mail.eml I get: Z:\>sb_filter.py < mail.eml C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\spambayes\classifier.py:43: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated from sets import Set Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\python26\scripts\sb_filter.py", line 257, in <module> main() File "c:\python26\scripts\sb_filter.py", line 245, in main mbox = mboxutils.getmbox(fname) File "c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\spambayes\mboxutils.py", line 66, in getmbox return [get_message(sys.stdin)] File "c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\spambayes\mboxutils.py", line 127, in get_ message obj = obj.read() IOError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor The python scripts directory is in the path variable. Mail.eml is in the current directory, and it makes no difference if I supply the full path to mail.eml Thanks for any help. I love spambayes, It's been working awesome for years, but hate MS Exchange. I'd really love to get this working with hMailServer as I've built a great hammie.db that catches 99% of spam. I wrote the script needed to integrate SB with the hMailServer, but I can't seem to get this command line working. Once I do that I'll be home free and spam free once again. Thanks, Mike

Using Office 2007
by Cara Emerson April 23, 2009

Spambayes was working for awhile after installation. Junk Suspects folder was accidently deleted, recovered - Spambayes seemed to be ok. Now Spambayes is not working at all Junk Suspects folder is gone, add-in is disabled. Tried uninstalling and reinstalled add-in - no change. When select Spambayes manager to reconfigure nothing happens - drop down menu does not appear. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you for your attention and assistance, Cara Emerson PC Support Technician McElroy Manufacturing, Inc. 918-836-8611

Assistance on documentation
by Greg Waller April 14, 2009

April 14, 2009

I don't have the funds to support your program at this time. However, I do have some time every now and then to help with proof-reading your documentation. I do have considerable experience with this so let me know if you would like some help. For example: Whenever you have phrases like 'Outlook's builtin rules,' you should not put two words together (i.e. built and in) that don't normally go together without a hyphen (-). Therefore, the before mentioned phrase (or word if you prefer) should look like this: built-in This particular error was noticed in your initial Welcome to SpamBayes page. Note: I don't know if you are emphasizing American English or British English - there are some grammatical and spelling differences. But assuming that you are using American English rules as the standard in your english documentation, I believe I can help. By the way, great job with this project/software. It seems to be working great so far. And although I haven't had the time to read through all of your documentation, it looks very well drafted - very few if any errors. This is so important to show that you are serious and professional about this project. It also makes it easier to read for people like me who are sticklers for proper grammar and spelling. :-) Greg Waller

SpamBayes
by John VanSickle April 13, 2009

Hi, I was just wondering if SpamBayes is still in development? I noticed you still have the same Alpha version as of June of 2007. It appears dead, which is too bad since I liked the product and still use the alpha. John
