Re: [Spambayes] how to remove spam from subject forincorrectly makedmail

I don't believe you can edit messages with Outlook Express

Thanks, I was able to fix this via a plugin for Thunderbird that allows you to edit headers.
I presume that means that you're using Thunderbird, then. Do you know that the subject tags aren't required to use SpamBayes with Thunderbird? You ought to be able to filter on the X-Spambayes-Classification header, which avoids munging up the subject header. (Sad old Outlook Express can't filter on arbitrary headers, so needs the subject/to munging). I guess you might want the munging for some other reason.
Also I've switched to the imap client, but had to use an older version due to not beeing able to connect to the mail server with the newer version.
What's the older version and what's the newer one? 1.1a1 ought to be much better than 1.0.x, but is in alpha. 1.0.4 should definitely be better than any earlier 1.0.x's.
the problem is that it occasionaly crashes and i have to restart the filter.
I don't suppose you have any more information than that? Like the message that it printed when it crashed? =Tony.Meyer -- Please always include the list (spambayes at python.org) in your replies (reply-all), and please don't send me personal mail about SpamBayes. http://www.massey.ac.nz/~tameyer/writing/reply_all.html explains this.
Tony, Thanks for the help. Tony Meyer wrote:

Yes, I was able to turn off the Subject tags once I realized I didn't need them for Thunderbird.

I was unable to get the newer versions to work on my Gentoo install. I will have to attempt this again in the future.

Unfortunatly I don't have any error messages since i'm running spambayes as a process from init.d. For now I'll just deal with it, and attempt to get the newest versionup and running in the future.
