[Spambayes] Windows XP SP2 breaks spambayes

[Allen Bolderoff]

This did not help, I have just decided to deal manually (and with outlook
2003 filters) until I can come up with a better solution.

A few weeks ago I was having this same problem (or one pretty much like it)
with Windows XP SP1 and Outlook 2000. Somebody (I think it was you, Tony)
suggested I try the Outlook "Detect and Repair" command, and that fixed it.
It's at least worth a try.
