Fw: [Spambayes] Spambayes on Outlook Express

Still nothing filtered so far.  Here's what I know about my Outlook Express
setup.  The mail account name is pop.west.cox.net.  THe server is POP3 on
localhost (I changed it to that per instructions).  In the advanced
settings, the POP3 server is monitoring channel 110 (typical).  Do I need to
check the secure socket link required box?

Anyway, still adding SPAM.  Any ideas, cuase nothing's happening.
