I have several email accounts (pop3) that all get delivered to the inbox. I have configured rules to place the various emails into folders by account. (i.e) personal emails go to HOME.) If I have the filters enabled the emails get moved with no spam filtering if they are turned off filtering occurs in the inbox folder. Thanks, Dick Fisher _______________________________________________ End of SpamBayes Digest, Vol 166, Issue 11 ****************************************** There is only one folder that SpamBayes looks at. If you use a rule to move mail as it arrives, it will bypass the inbox folder and not be scanned by SpamBayes. I would suggest you run all mail through the inbox, then allow SpamBayes to filter into a holding folder. Then, you review the holding folder and "train" SpamBayes or delete as necessary. Eventually, the spam from all of your accounts will be funneled into the spam folder you have set up, and the good email will be in your inbox. You will have to then move the good email into the folders you want. You may also be able to use your Internet Service Provider to scan for spam before they deliver your email to you, then you will not need to use SpamBayes. Maybe there is another way to do what you want with SpamBayes, but I don't know what it would be. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- How I setup my email spam filters: I use my ISP to look for certain email headers and deliver it to a specific folder(s) on my computer. Eventually, one folder receives most of my spam. I quickly look through it and delete as necessary. I move the "good" looking email into the inbox and run filtering again with SpamBayes. When I get some email that should be good, I send that directly to the inbox. That's when SpamBayes works its magic. Occasionally some &^%* spammer will find one of my good email addresses and it slips into my inbox. SpamBayes catches it and dumps it into my holding folder. I check to make sure it is spam, then delete it. This is a tough process, but as long as the &^%* spammers are out there, it is the best way I know of to eliminate the spam. Good luck, and may all spammers die of a long, protracted, painful, venereal disease! ****************************************** Disclaimer: I am NOT a SpamBayes expert. Take my advice with caution. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

can't even get started with configure

The software errors out on the SMTP section with a claim that I entered “none”. I’ve tried to fill in file paths but it reports them as illegal. [in other words I can’t get out of the starting gate] I’ve tried to search the FAQs but nothing seems to address “configure” Tom Schultz schultz(a)pei.sympatico.ca PS: computer is running windows 7 with the free AVG and the email is LiveMail. Don’t get me going about how Microsoft stabbed me in the back relative to all the programs that ran just fine under XP!

I use the 2007 version, but it should work similarly. Click View | Toolbars Look for SpamBayes to be checked. If not, check it. Now look for the toolbar. ***************************************** Hello, our office recently updated to windows 2010. I went to spambayes site and downloaded spambaye, but the tool bar does not show in outlook. When I click on the start button and click all programs to look for spambayes, it only shows about and the trouble shooting guide, which was no help...any idea what is wrong? Thanks for any help you can offer. Estelle End of SpamBayes Digest, Vol 166, Issue 9 *****************************************

Open the SpamBayes Manager | Filtering Make sure you have a folder selected to check, like "Inbox" and a folder to have them moved too. Then, you can use a rule to make them delete, etc. ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2012 18:41:38 +0000 From: "Soliven, Betty [BSD] - NEU" <bsoliven(a)neurology.bsd.uchicago.edu> To: "'spambayes(a)python.org'" <spambayes(a)python.org> Subject: [Spambayes] (no subject) Message-ID: <023A6A5FFB4B5C4C8BBEE7F68B626943CCBD(a)ADM-CELL09.bsd.uchicago.edu> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hello, I have encountered a problem.
