[Spambayes] LONG POST: Log file and Outlook Rules analysis

I too still need lots of rules - just none are Spam related any more.  So
you are not alone.  Worse, I fear that in some cases, SpamBayes is
preventing the Outlook rules from running.  Sean's solution may well end up
in the next release.

No worries.
