IIRC, no-one pushed for spambayes_*, so it wasn't really considered.
Personally, I like sb_* a lot more, though, because I quite often type
out the commands by hand, and that saves me 7
keystrokes..."scripts/sb_server.py" is already 8 keystrokes longer than
"pop3proxy.py".

Yes. It is used - for example it's on the bottom of every page of the
web interface, so is the obvious way for pop3proxy/imapfilter people to
find the website. It also frees spambayes from being tied to sf (if
python moved elsewhere, I would imagine that spambayes would consider
it, too).

+1 :) I can't recall if the PSF donation link manages to record a
'reason' for donating or not, but I suspect that the donations for
spambayes (based on messages posted) might cover it.

I'd be willing to contribute towards the fees (but have no desire to
manage another domain) if this is necessary.
