Paul,

The plugin is for Outlook alone.  For Outlook Express, the setup is the 
same as other mail clients, such as Mozilla Thunderbird or Pegasus 
Mail.  In this scenario, SpamBayes is configured and trained through a 
web page, usually http://localhost:8880.  The SpamBayes proxy is 
configured with your email server settings, and Outlook Express is 
configured to contact the SpamBayes proxy.  You will find more details 
here: 
http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/faq.html#does-spambayes-work-with-outlook-express

With Outlook Express, the 2nd paragraph of the FAQ above is essential.

Hope this helps,
Dale
