Hi all,

I found spambayes through a link in a tagline, downloaded it, installed
Python and spambayes, tried to get it working on Outlook Express, got a
million errors and subscribed to this list. ;-)

My question (probably asked a zillion times, but couldn't find anything
usefull in the archives) is: Is there a step-by-step
newbie-with-no-knowledge-at-all guide on how to use spambayes with
Outlook Express?

When i run pop3proxy.py -b i get:
C:\SpamBayes>pop3proxy.py -b
SpamBayes POP3 Proxy Beta2, version 0.2 (September 2003),
using SpamBayes POP3 Proxy Web Interface Alpha3, version 0.03
and engine SpamBayes Beta2, version 0.2 (July 2003).

Loading database...
Traceback (most recent call last):

    return self.socket.bind(addr)
  File "<string>", line 1, in bind
socket.error: (10013, 'Permission denied')

Permission denied on a Windows system? ;-)

Well, Windows XP Pro at this end. Latest stable Python. What else do you
kings need to help me out?

Regards,

Ton.
