You need to set spambayes to use "norton.pop3.antivirus" as the remote
server, and (because Norton is already using your local port 110) use 8110
as the port to proxy on.

What happens is that OE connects to SpamBayes on port 8110, which connects
to Norton on port 110, which connects to pop.west.cox.net on *its* port 110.

Is this any clearer?
