I'm having the same problem! I'm also using Outlook 2007 on Windows 7 64 bit. 

What version of Python are you using? That 3.x version, or the 2.x stuff? I'm using 2.6.4 (32 bit). When I ran the trace logs, I saw the same entries - that "Python error invoking COM method" and the "ValueError: (22, 'Invalid argument')". 

It's driving me nuts, because spambayes worked great on XP, and I miss having it. I thought I was doing something wrong, but now I see I'm not the only one with this problem. 


Can someone help us out here?
