[Spambayes] Error running pop3proxy.py

[Stephen Boulet]

After further experimenting, I found it works if I deleted all of the 
spambayes related files from the directory from which I'm running the 
program: 

_pop3proxyham.mbox   bayescustomize.ini  pop3proxy-ham-cache/   
pop3proxy-unknown-cache/ _pop3proxyspam.mbox  hammie.db           
pop3proxy-spam-cache/  spambayes.messageinfo.db

I still have the problem of not being able to run as a user. Anyone know how 
to give myself permission? Here's the message (using v. 1.0a5):
