Update of /cvsroot/spambayes/spambayes/Outlook2000/docs
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv20493/docs

Modified Files:
	configuration.html 
Log Message:
The experimental 'timers' options got upgraded to the 'filter' 
section.  Existing values should be migrated (but note you won't see
the migration until the config is saved - ie, after the manager dialog
is shown).  New values are floating point seconds (and the migration
also does the conversion from the old milli-seconds).  I'm too nice :)

-       <td style="vertical-align: top;">Enables the use of a timer to
- process messages rather than processing as they arrive.&nbsp; This has
- been designed to avoid problems where the plugin conflicts with
- Outlook's builtin rules, causing a number of symptoms; either Outlook
- rules not firing, or strange 'unread' states on the messages.&nbsp; If
- this value is zero, the timer is disabled, otherwise it specifies the
- delay (in <span style="font-weight: bold;">milliseconds</span>)
- between a new item being received in the Inbox, and SpamBayes starting
- to process the items.&nbsp; If another new message arrives during this
- period, the timer will be reset, and the delay will start again.&nbsp;
- This prevents SpamBayes from becoming overwhelmed when Outlook itself
- is being overwhelmed with new messages - SpamBayes will patiently wait
- until the flood has stopped, and begin sorting out the Spam.<br>
- A reasonable starting point for this option would be 2000 (ie, every 2
- seconds), but the optimal value will vary depending on the speed of
- your machine, network connection and mail server.<br>

-       <td style="vertical-align: top;">Once the new message timer has
- actually started, how long (in <span style="font-style: italic;">milliseconds</span>)
- should it wait before checking each new message.&nbsp; If a new message
- arrives during this process, the entire timer process is restarted,
- meaning that <span style="font-style: italic;">timer_start_delay</span>

-       <td style="vertical-align: top;">If you have specified that a
- timer be used, this option controls if the timer is used only for
- special 'Inbox' type folders (True), or for all watched folders (False).<br>
- The point of using a timer is to prevent the SpamBayes filter getting
- in the way the builtin Outlook rules.&nbsp; Therefore, is it generally
- only necessary to use a timer for folders that have new items being
- delivered directly to them by the server - typically, your
- 'Inbox'.&nbsp; Folders that are not inbox style folders generally are
- not subject to builtin filtering, so generally have no problems
- filtering messages in 'real time'.<br>
