What do you mean by closing shop?
I would just add a notice on the website that SpamBayes is not compatible
with Windows 7 64bit + Outlook 2010, and leave it at that. It works
perfectly fine for my .procmailrc setup on Linux, and for many other
configurations.

It's open source anyway. Anyone can checkout the repo, write a patch, and
ask for a pull (git terminology over here, I don't know which repo
SpamBayes uses).
