[Spambayes] Will Not install

Hi All,

 

Recently installed spambayes: win 10(64), outlook 2016(32), C:\spambayes
(installation folder) and the program is stable and works just fine.  Though
I wish it would work better.  It flags too many emails as suspect - even
after I have identified them as not spam.  Also I wish I could put the
buttons spam, not spam directly on my quick access toolbar.  They are inside
a custom toolbars icon.

I have a non-functioning program.  I have used Spambayes since year 1999
without a hitch. 

 

Now that I  have a problem, sent an inquiry for help, I receive an arrogant
reply whose technical meaning indicates " you dummy look at out faq and
other info pages first. Follow the instructions, then contact us."

The faq page is filled with technical info of little use to non-technical
people. 

 

I'm outraged at this lack of sensitivity and ignorance since all users of
are not technical people. Furthermore, you want voluntary contributions
which I have made on several occasions.

 

So, what must I do now. I guess suffer without the help of Spambayes.

Ted,

There are two things repeatedly mentioned on this list with the Outlook
toolbar on recent versions of Windows.  As Skip mentioned, you must install
in a location other than the default; C:\spambayes is usually recommended.
The other thing is that the Spambayes toolbar will not work in a 64-bit
version of Outlook; it must be 32-bit.  Being a dormant project, if you have
met these criteria and it still does not work, then there are no further
options other than to search Google's archives for a solution, use Spambayes
POP3 proxy instead, or find an alternative software.

Best of luck,
Dale
