[spambayes-dev] Outlook Plug-In Bug?

[Robert Mezzone]

I'd be more than happy to try older versions. I should have saved my copies.

I have to do some further testing but I can't recall having the problem with 1.1a1 and I've been using it for months. I want to try upgrading one of the 1.0.x machines tomorrow to see what happens.

I downloaded Process Explorer from sysinterinals. Perhaps I can figure out what is causing the process to not end gracefully.

I suspect that this is this bug:
 
[ 1103976 ] Outlook.exe will not terminate when launched via mailto
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1103976&group_id=61702&atid=498103>
 
My money is on this being an Outlook bug.  It's possible we can work around it somehow, of course.
 
Since this only appears to effect Outlook 2003, and I'm using Outlook 2002, it's pretty difficult for me to look into ways around this (not that I have the time right at the moment, anyway).  Kenny is assigned the above bug report, and is going to look into it when he has time, I believe (which won't be for a while as well, IIRC).
 
Whether or not this was a problem in earlier versions of the plug-in is an interesting question, to which I don't know the answer.  It's possible that it was, especially since the problem doesn't effect old versions of Outlook.  If you (or anyone else) wants to try old plug-in versions, I have copies of them all (or could unhide them on sourceforge temporarily).  If the problem doesn't occur with old versions, then that would certainly be valuable information for the bug report, since that gives an idea of where to find a solution.
