Summary: UNC path for data_directory?

Initial Comment:
I'd like to keep one SpamBayes database, but I use 
several PCs threough out the day.

I can mount a shared resource, and specify in my 
default_configuration.ini:
  data_directory:M:\data\Mail\SpamBayes

However, I'd like to be able to specify a UNC path, like:
  data_directory:\myhost\c$\data\Mail\SpamBayes

so that I do not have to keep a drive-letter mounted or 
rely on it being there...

I realize that, for laptops, this might cause issues when 
offline; however, if that folder were marked for 
synchronization, it should work, right?

Thanks,
Bobby Wilkins

Note: on discussion with Tony Meyer, it was identified to me 
that SpamBayes is doing an os.path.isdir() on the value of 
data_directory.

My personal testing of this function indicates that it 
successfully identifies UNC paths; directiries return ture, and 
other items do not.

Therefore, I suggest that this might be a "bug", not 
a "feature request". 

Should I re-submit in the "bugs" area?
