[Spambayes] what about Outlook 2007

I use Eudora Pro version 5.1, which is CERTAINLY not supported by Spambayes 
with toolbars and fancy in-client stuff. But I've been using Spambayes 
successfully for years by using the POP3 proxy. Just pour it on and it works.

It's just a little harder to configure.

Basically, you use a web browser to configure Spambayes to talk to your 
ISP's mail server. If you can set your mail client to do it, you can make 
Spambayes do it.

Then you set up your mail client to talk to SPAMBAYES, not to your ISP. 
Spambayes intermediates and talks to the mail server on your behalf, 
marking suspected spam with a yes/no/maybe tag.

You then set up a rule in outlook to dump all mail tagged as uncertain into 
a folder for your review. After you gain some confidence, you tell it to 
dump mail marked SPAM into the trash.

You train it using a web browser pointed to http://localhost:8880/review 
(usually that's the address).
