The error messages are straight from Python, which escapes '\' in strings
(to allow '\n' to be a newline, '\t' to be a tab, etc).  SpamBayes doesn't
do any processing of the traceback.

Certainly for any filename in a traceback you can just treat the double
slashes as a single slash.

(FWIW, my only suggestion about the actual error would be the same as Bob's
- it appears that you don't have access to write to the temp directory,
which is where SpamBayes is trying to log).
