Anthony's Alternate Approach to Building the Zipfile
! o Unpack the tarball somewhere, making a spambayes-1.0a7 directory
! (version number will obviously change in future releases)
! o Run the following two commands:
! find spambayes-1.0a7 -type f -name '*.txt' | xargs zip -l sb107.zip
! find spambayes-1.0a7 -type f \! -name '*.txt' | xargs zip sb107.zip
! o This makes a tarball where the .txt files are mangled, but everything
! else is left alone.

--- 17,33 ----
--------------------------
! o If you are using a pickle for storage, your 'message info' database
! would previously still have been a dbm (where available). This is
! no longer the case - if you are using a pickle for the statistics
! database, you have a pickle for everything. Your old 'message info'
! database is not converted (and there is no utility provided to do so).
! If you are using a pickle for storage, you should delete your old
! 'spambayes.messageinfo.db' file before restarting after the upgrade.
! You should not suffer any ill effects from this, *unless* you are
! using sb_imapfilter.py. In that case, you will find that the filter
! trains and classifies all messages in the folders it examines, even
! if it has seen them before - this will only occur once, however.
!
! There should be no other incompatible changes (from 1.0a6) in this release.

POP3 Proxy / SMTP Proxy
-----------------------
! o If running Windows, and have the win32 extensions installed, and a
! configuration file cannot be found, then default to placing it in the
! "Application Data" directory (as defined by Windows). Also default to
! storing the caches and databases in this directory.
! o Correctly save and close the database when changing options. This
! fixes a bug for those using gdbm databases.
Web Interface
-------------
! o Place a threshold on the number of items displayed per section in the
! review page.
! o Correctly display the proxy data when it is specified on the command
! line.
POP3 Proxy Service / POP3 Proxy Tray Application
------------------------------------------------
! o The POP3 proxy tray application (for Windows users), which quietly
! appeared in the 1.0a5 release, should be ready for use. If you have
! the service installed, it will attempt to use that; if you do not,
! it will start up sb_server for you.
! ** Note that the tray application currently only works with Windows
! NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP, not Windows 95, 98, or ME. This
! will be remedied in a future version, and in the binary release of
! the tray application. **
! o As the service starts, it reports the username and configuration file
! that it is using.
! o Added a version check option to the tray application.
! o Improved logged for both the service and the tray application.

POP3 Proxy / SMTP Proxy
-----------------------
! o An error where a failure message would be printed by
! the SMTP proxy, even on success, was fixed.
Web Interface
-------------
! o The bug which caused the "TypeError" when trying to access
! the database after setting a configuration option via the
! interface has been fixed.
POP3 Proxy Service / POP3 Proxy Tray Application
------------------------------------------------
! o Both the pop3proxy_service.py and pop3proxy_tray.py
! scripts are now installed (with "setup.py install") if

General
-------
! o Add a new file: NEWTRICKS.TXT to record ideas that have and haven't
! been tried. If you would like to add to this, please submit a patch
! via the Sourceforge system.
! o Change the default to tokenizer the "To", "CC", "Reply-To", "Sender",
! and "From" address headers, rather than just "From".
! o Fix the database opening code so that hammie* again works with both
! dbm and pickles.
! o Minor performance boosts to hammiebulk and mboxtrain.
!
! Developer
! ---------
! o Add a close method to the various storage classes.
! o Removed the gary_combining option and code.
Transition
==========
! If you are transitioning from a version older than 1.0a5, please also
read the notes in the previous release notes (accessible from
<http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=61702>).
--- 114,137 ----
General
-------
! o Various improvements have been made to the management of the
! 'message info' database. As outlined above, it will now be
! stored as a pickle, if your statistics database uses a pickle.
! In addition, we attempt to close the database when we should,
! and make sure that we explicitly update it. This should hopefully
! go some way to solving the "DB_RUN_RECOVERY" errors that have
! been regularly reported - we would be interested to hear from
! you if upgrading to 1.0a7 does appear to solve this problem
! for you (email spambayes at python.org).
! o We now try to determine the type of dbm storage used from the
! file, if one already exists. This should make the transition
! between formats a little easier.
! o Fix sb_xmlrpcserver to work with the renamed (since 1.0a5)
! scripts.
! o Fix the sense of include_trained in sb_mboxtrain.
