Using Outlook rules with Spambyas
Hello, I really like Spambyas, but have found a problem in the way my Outlook is setup. I have the following configuration: Windows XP Professional Outlook 2002 SP-1 Spambyas binary version 0.81 I am using the Outlook Rules Wizard to move mail from different email accounts into their own folders. This is the format: "Apply this rule after the message arrives through the MSN Roadrunner account Move it to the Inbox MSN folder" The problem is that after Spambyas detects it as spam, this rule moves it again to the Inbox MSN folder and Spambyas trains it as a good message. Is there a way around this? Thank you, Alan Vernick

You might try going to the Advanced tab in SpamBayes Manager and turning on the "Enable background filtering" option. The purpose of this option is to allow Outlook Rules time complete before SpamBayes checks the messages. The only noticeable side-effect to this is that it will take a little longer for spam messages to disappear from your inboxes. -- Kenny Pitt
