1.  If you look at the SpamBayes web interface, how many messages does it
say have been filtered?

2.  Outlook Express won't show you almost any of a message's headers, so you
need to get SpamBayes to put the classification in either the Subject or the
To header.  If you haven't done that yet, you'll need to also do this - the
options are on the main configuration page in the SpamBayes web interface.
