Category: Outlook Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Kenny Pitt (kpitt) Assigned to: Kenny Pitt (kpitt) Summary: Add notification sound to Outlook addin Initial Comment: This patch adds support for playing notification sounds when messages are processed by SpamBayes. The attached ZIP file contains 3 diff files to patch files in the Outlook2000 directory, and a notification_sound_patch.txt file that describes the notification sound feature and how to configure it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Kenny Pitt (kpitt) Date: 2007-08-10 09:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=859086 Originator: YES Looks like time to do a little cleanup. This has been fully implemented for awhile in 1.1 including configuration in the SpamBayes Manager dialog. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kenny Pitt (kpitt) Date: 2004-12-03 16:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=859086 I've checked the changes into latest CVS. The next step will be to provide a Notifications tab in SpamBayes Manager for configuring the sounds. Until then, you can configure it according to the original instructions in this patch. The only difference is that I placed the settings in a separate section called "Notification" instead of in the "Experimental" section. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tony Meyer (anadelonbrin) Date: 2004-12-02 18:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=552329 Kenny - how would you feel about committing this to CVS Head at some point? We still get regular requests for it, and I don't see that it could hurt going into 1.1a1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tony Meyer (anadelonbrin) Date: 2003-12-17 18:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=552329 Hmm. There are a *lot* of experimental/new features that will be present in the next release that weren't in 1.0a7 as a result of dumping the 1_0_release branch and the current popularity of 'x-' options. I suppose these don't effect the plug-in in any obvious way, but they are still there in the background (apart from the web interface changes). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kenny Pitt (kpitt) Date: 2003-12-17 09:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=859086 I agree that we shouldn't be adding any new features, especially experimental ones, to the 1.0 release. A branch sounds like a good idea, and fits with the branching strategy discussed earlier on spambayes-dev. Either a single branch for all new features or a separate branch per feature is fine with me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Mark Hammond (mhammond) Date: 2003-12-17 01:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=14198 I'm reluctant to include this in the trunk at this stage. How would you feel about it going on a branch, and after 1.0 we integrate it? If we are really keen, we could build "experimental" binaries for people as we go (but these would not be official) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=498105&aid=858925&group_id=61702 From noreply at sourceforge.net Fri Aug 10 16:15:28 2007 From: noreply at sourceforge.net (SourceForge.net) Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2007 07:15:28 -0700 Subject: [spambayes-bugs] [ spambayes-Bugs-1771329 ] Outlook Tool Bar Problem w/"Junk Suspects" Message-ID: Bugs item #1771329, was opened at 2007-08-10 09:45 Message generated for change (Comment added) made by mhammond You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=498103&aid=1771329&group_id=61702 Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update.

I was having other "interesting" errors in Outlook as well as this SB error and searching led me to a fix. Essentially, remove the current profile from Mail settings in Control Panel, reboot, create a new profile (Outlook prompts on next instance if you don't do this manually) and all's good.

There are no delays or time-outs on the other account. Spambayes is listed among authorised applications under firewall policy in the local machine section of the registry (as C:\Program Files\SpamBayes\bin\sb_tray.exe:*:Enabled:sb_tray) but not materially elsewhere in the registry. None of this appears to be any different from my other machines which are successfully running spambayes (except that the python version now used on this machine is 2.5 not 2.3) - which perplexes me! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Mosman (mosman2088) Date: 2007-08-14 23:01 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1865284 Originator: YES Incidentally "http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/spambayes-1.1a4.exe" returns a 404 error and the file spambayes-1.1a4.exe isn't locatable on http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/ - the link "The SpamBayes project is at sourceforge " only leads to version 1.0.4 and a zip file for 1.1a4, which produced the installation problem reported ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Mosman (mosman2088) Date: 2007-08-14 22:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1865284 Originator: YES Uninstalling (to the point of manually removing all directories) and reinstalling Spambayes 1.0.4 does not overcome the problem. Installing Spambayes 1.1a4 has not been possible - the installation hangs after reporting that "user interface url is http://localhost:8880/" and "loading database"; after 60 minutes traceback report is "'file [...]/scripts/sb_server.py', line 1109, in run<>; 'file [...]/scripts/sb_server.py', line 1103, in run; 'file [...]/scripts/sb_server.py', line 1040, in start state.close<>; 'file [...]/scripts/sb_server.py', line 789, in close assert self.prepared, 'closed without being prepared!" Re "the new retrieval_timeout in the 1.1 series," apart from the circumstance that I can't install 1.1a4, the problem does not seem to be a server timeout at the ISP level, as IE6 downloads messages using an account constructed to access the server directly (ie bypassing spambayes, at the cost of 100+ spam messages daily) with no delay at all; large files (10 mb attachments are not uncommon) cause it no problem and have caused spambayes no problem in the past. The proxy cache directories (under C:\Documents and Settings\{user}\Application Data\SpamBayes\Proxy\) have collected some but not all of the messages on the server, received after the problem to which this thread is directed manifested itself. Unfortunately I cleared the server and the cache directories before recording them for comparison. Should I go back to 1.0.4? What do I have to delete from the disk and the registry to get a clean install? Thanks for your help! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Skip Montanaro (montanaro) Date: 2007-08-11 21:17 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=44345 Originator: NO Also, note the new retrieval_timeout in the 1.1 series.

It's available at http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/spambayes-1.1a4.exe A lot of bugs have been fixed since 1.0.4.
