Bizarre.  I've never seen a report of this before.  In any case, though,
if you click the Browse buttons in the Train Now dialog you should be
presented with all the folders available to Outlook (Exchange, pst and
whatever else).  If some (or all!) aren't visible, then Spambayes is
probably having trouble accessing them - there should be errors about
this in the logs (the troubleshooting guide has information about where
to find the logs).  If you could pass on the most recent log, that would
be great.

Couldn't hurt, since you don't have any training to lose.  If you do,
make sure that you delete the contents of the spambayes folder in your
"Application Data" folder (this includes the configuration files, which
are not removed on uninstall).  This FAQ tells you where to find that:
