Summary: Database file: sizelimit?
Initial Comment:
I've encountered following effect:
- trained spam bayes on over 20.000 spam an about 3.500 ham mails resulting in a database file about 10 MB size (each)
- automatic filtering work well enough
- but: manual declaring mail as spam / ham did not work (see attached logfile)
- nothing helps, inlcuding:
-- removing icons from outlook an reinstall them
-- removing complete outlook icons config
-- reinstalling spambayes (but reusing old database files)
- but the solution was:
-- deleted database files
-- retrained on only 1.000 spam and 1.000 ham
-- result: a database file about 5 MB (bayes) and 1.2 MB (message)
- everything worked again and still does
So, may there be a problem when the database file(s) exceed a specific size?
My system:
WinXP Pro, SP2
Outlook 2003
SpamBayes 1.1a3
PS: Same problem with minor version of spambayes

Ups, I thought 'the more the better'. Seems to have been wrong. :-)

There is no specific size limit, but there's also no reason to have 1,000
spams or hams. I suggest you
try deleting your database altogether and start from scratch. If you want
to seed the database, just use
the last 10 (ten) or so spams and hams.
