One more . . . I can't seem to get the filtering to work.
I've had SpamBayes up and trained for a day, and ran the "start filtering"
yesterday. This morning I shut off my Outlook filter. Since then not one
email had been filtered. So, just now I ran "start filtering" to hopefully
clear out my inbox spam, and nothing cleared.
How do I turn on the filtering?

Subject: Questions
Just downloaded and installed the SpamBayes Outlook 2000 plug-in. Several
questions:
1. Do I periodically need to "retrain" the system, or does it learn
automatically in real time as I move messages in and out of my spam folder?
2. Can I periodically clean out the spam folder, or does the system need
the history to maintain its scoring and learning?
3. When I disconnect from the network (I use a laptop), will the system
catch the spam when I log back on? E.g., does it take a pass through the
outlook inbox when i come back on the network? If so, what trigger this --
re-opening outlook, or just the fact that i come back on a network?
Thanks,
doug.
