You should be able to use a "diff" tool to compare 2 versions of the same file. Although using svn makes life simpler, it is not necessary. Googling for help on using 'diff' should be easier. Once you have a diff, sourceforge should be quite simple to navigate - just locate the spambayes project and open a new "tracker issue" describing your changes and with your patch uploaded. > Can't do this at the moment.

Python is only necessary when building from the source code. You should have downloaded and installed the installer version (.exe). Try it again and make sure that Outlook is "detected" and checked by default.

If you find one, delete it. Then when you click "Delete as Spam" (mine says simply "Spam," the deletion should work. But also, if your experience is like mine, SpamBayes won't do anything on its own.

I think I indicated that I was relying on wikipedia. It's not infallible, but in this case I think Windows Live Mail (WLM) program manager's blog (http://morethanmail.spaces.live.com/ ) supports its information. Among other things, the PM says that "we needed to rationalize the different investments we had in the email space" and that "the future of consumer client email per Microsoft [is] Windows Live Mail." There's also a table in an early post that lists "Features in Each Release," with columns for "Windows XP OE6," "Vista Windows Mail," and "Windows Live Mail Desktop." That seems to indicate that Microsoft thinks of WLM as a successor. Then there's the installer's behavior. http://morethanmail.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!B7DD1FF3F141F9A1!3459.entry states that when WLM is installed, Windows Mail and OE shortcuts are replaced with shortcuts to WLM. If that doesn't indicate an intent to have WLM succeed Windows Mail, I'm not sure what would. In any case, I don't think there's any reason that one product cannot be the successor to another. (In fact, while one release of a given product can succeed an earlier release, it seems nonsensical to say that a product succeeds itself.) For instance, Windows XP is a completely different animal than Windows ME, but Microsoft successfully positioned XP as the successor to ME. Copying the list for posterity.

I uninstalled the previous version through the control panel and made sure to download the installer version (.exe) this time. It still doesn't work. The problem I think is that Spambayes was never correctly installed in the first place. When it was first installed, the spambayes tool bar appeared in outlook along with the junk mail and junk suspects folders but there was no automatic automatically filtering of emails as usually happens. The buttons on the spambayes toolbar, while they appear in Outlook, are not activated. The 'Delete as spam' button is disabled and the "Spambayes" drop-down list does not appear. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall spambayes several times but with no success. It seems that the original add-in (that doesn't work properly) is now 'stuck' in Outlook-it does not uninstall when I uninstall the spambayes program from the computer. Does this make any sense?

I retrain from scratch periodically, and I generally find that a remarkably small corpus (maybe a total of couple of dozen messages trained) is effective. I retrain in part because I suspect that the content of spam that I receive changes over time, so training performed on messages from the distant past (say, six months ago) may be irrelevant or worse for my current message stream. One of the counter-intuitive things about SpamBayes is how little data it needs to go on. This makes retraining fast, easy, and (for me, at least) perversely rewarding. -----Original Message----- From: spambayes-bounces at python.org [mailto:spambayes-bounces at python.org] On Behalf Of gpr Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2008 1:44 PM To: spambayes at python.org Subject: [Spambayes] Does SpamBayes support automatic selective training?

Do you use Exchange? Because I see this in your mail headers: X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft Exchange V6.5 "Out of the office" messages are sent by the Exchange server. Even when Outlook is not running. You probably use SpamBayes as a client-side filter, as an Outlook plugin. If this is the case, then SpamBayes can't do anything about it. Three possible solutions: * don't send OotO messages * have a better server-side antispam * live with it (sorry, but it's true) -- Amedee Van Gasse amedee at amedee.be From skip at pobox.com Fri Jan 4 15:28:02 2008 From: skip at pobox.com (skip at pobox.com) Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2008 08:28:02 -0600 Subject: [Spambayes] Filtering Junk Mail vs Out of Office Assistant In-Reply-To: <50801.193.121.250.194.1199434366.squirrel@intrepid.warp.be> References: <319B27135C5F5847A083F04E853F7391217553@SBSERVER1.albertatubular.local> <50801.193.121.250.194.1199434366.squirrel@intrepid.warp.be> Message-ID: <18302.17010.487710.375803@montanaro.dyndns.org> Amedee> * live with it (sorry, but it's true) I think this is important for people to consider in general. No spam filter is ever going to be 100% effective. You can classify messages until you are blue in the face, but SpamBayes will still make the occasional mistake. In the words of Joel Goodsen, sometimes you have to say, "What the hell..." and just let it go. Like many people I get several classes of email. I get stuff I really want (like the mail from this list). I get obvious spam. And I get stuff that's hard even for me to classify at times. For example, I've used active.com to register for races before, so I'm on their mailing list. That means they send me "stuff". Sometimes it's mildly interesting. Other times it's just crap. SpamBayes filters obviously good mail into one or more "good" mailboxes. It sorts the not-obviously-good email into unsure, lospam and hispam mailboxes. The active.com mails can wind up in all four places. Do I care? No. I simply glance at it and delete it unless it turns out to be terribly interesting. You learn to live with it. There are more important things in life for me than a perfect spam filter.

A problem I am noticing is that when I send a message from Outlook (MS Office 2003 - XP Pro), Norton (2008) sits and grinds on screening outgoing messages in an unresponding mode. I finally have to go to MSCONFIG to stop the process. Outlook says the message went out. Before I installed Spambayes, I did not have this trouble with Norton.

For instance, I just tossed my training database a couple of days ago, when it had a few hundred messages and a spam:ham ratio of about 3:1. I'm now getting filtering results that are almost as good with 7 ham and 5 spam in the database, and I expect results will improve to the point that I think I'm ahead within a day or two. All very subjective, seat-of-the-pants, and possibly delusional. If I had the time, interest, and expertise, it might be interesting to quantify my results, but I'm just an Outlook plug-in user trying to make my mail stream manageable. I've managed to keep myself convinced that this approach is working for several years now, though. As for my perverse pleasure, that stems from marveling at how quickly SpamBayes learns, from keeping things lean, and from the sense that I'm spending less time manually classifying messages, once I reach that point. I wasn't necessarily recommending that Ram trash his training periodically, though. I just wanted to make the point that a small set of really good data may be better than a big set of data of questionable quality, and to suggest that he try incremental training before trying to figure out how to turn his existing set of messages into an effective training corpus. -----Original Message----- From: spambayes-bounces+jsp=pkc.com at python.org [mailto:spambayes-bounces+jsp=pkc.com at python.org] On Behalf Of David Abrahams Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2008 7:04 PM To: spambayes at python.org Subject: Re: [Spambayes] Does SpamBayes support automatic selective training? on Thu Jan 03 2008, "Jesse Pelton" wrote: > Do you have reason to believe that incremental training on messages that > you're currently receiving would be ineffective?

Windows Mail is the replacement for Outlook Express. It comes with Windows Vista. It is a POP3 mail client, and it probably works with IMAP. Windows Mail will come with all versions of Windows Vista for the life of Windows Vista. Windows Live Mail is a different kind of program. You can use it to replace Windows Mail or Outlook Express on a computer, but Windows Mail will still continue to come with Windows Vista. WLM is no more the successor to Windows Mail than Hotmail was to Outlook Express. The same can be said for Windows Live Search. It is not a successor to the Windows Search Companion, but it replaces the functionality of the Search Companion when it is installed. In the case of Windows XP being a successor to Windows Millennium Edition, the difference is that Windows Millennium Edition ceased to be available after the release of Windows XP. Windows Mail continues to come with Windows Vista. Also, anybody who says "rationalize the different investments we had in the email space" can't be trusted to write coherently about anything else. If in a future version of Windows, Windows Live Mail replaces Windows Mail, then it will be the successor to it.

I think I indicated that I was relying on wikipedia. It's not infallible, but in this case I think Windows Live Mail (WLM) program manager's blog ( http://morethanmail.spaces.live.com/) supports its information. Among other things, the PM says that "we needed to rationalize the different investments we had in the email space" and that "the future of consumer client email per Microsoft [is] Windows Live Mail." There's also a table in an early post that lists "Features in Each Release," with columns for "Windows XP OE6," "Vista Windows Mail," and "Windows Live Mail Desktop." That seems to indicate that Microsoft thinks of WLM as a successor. Then there's the installer's behavior. http://morethanmail.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!B7DD1FF3F141F9A1!3459.entry states that when WLM is installed, Windows Mail and OE shortcuts are replaced with shortcuts to WLM. If that doesn't indicate an intent to have WLM succeed Windows Mail, I'm not sure what would. In any case, I don't think there's any reason that one product cannot be the successor to another. (In fact, while one release of a given product can succeed an earlier release, it seems nonsensical to say that a product succeeds itself.) For instance, Windows XP is a completely different animal than Windows ME, but Microsoft successfully positioned XP as the successor to ME. Copying the list for posterity.

I am running MS Outlook 2000 SR-1 on both a W2K and an XP machine. (This old because I cannot stand the later UIs) The W2K system updated immediately, but the XP did not. After a bit of dredging the web I came across a suggestion that the XP firewall had an effect on the speed of update in Outlook. In the XP firewall configuration dialog I added outlook.exe to the list of programs that could receive incoming connections. Now clicking the Delete As Spam causes the message to be immediately removed from the display. Similarly, recover from Spam. Perhaps this explains why newer versions of outlook seemed to be affected by this problem -- they were more likely to be run with XP firewall. Hope this is helpful to others Regards /Dave From idoc at optonline.net Wed Jan 16 16:52:27 2008 From: idoc at optonline.net (Daniel Mirkin) Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2008 10:52:27 -0500 Subject: [Spambayes] Outlook express config problem Message-ID: <006801c8589d$c6a8cc40$340fa8c0@Manage.local> When I change my incoming host to localhost, I get outlook express asking for the id and password for local host.

That isn't going to happen, except on a case-by-case basis, because each user trains SpamBayes to his or her preference. If any given user gets messages from your domain and tells SpamBayes that they are spam, they will tend to be classified as spam in the future. If, on the other hand, that user treats messages from your domain as ham, SpamBayes will tend to classify future messages as ham. Note, though, that SpamBayes looks at many tokens in each message, and the domain name is just one. Even if a user classifies most messages from your domain as ham, if a message from your domain has a lot of spammy characteristics, it may well end up classified as spam. In short, there's no way to guarantee that your messages will get by SpamBayes, nor should there be. Your best bet is to make sure your message content matches the content that the recipients want. If you do a good job of message composition and list management, you should be fine. -----Original Message----- From: spambayes-bounces+jsp=pkc.com at python.org [mailto:spambayes-bounces+jsp=pkc.com at python.org] On Behalf Of Marian Hudec, Ing.

I uninstalled the previous version through the control panel and made sure to download the installer version (.exe) this time. It still doesn't work. The problem I think is that Spambayes was never correctly installed in the first place. When it was first installed, the spambayes tool bar appeared in outlook along with the junk mail and junk suspects folders but there was no automatic automatically filtering of emails as usually happens. The buttons on the spambayes toolbar, while they appear in Outlook, are not activated. The 'Delete as spam' button is disabled and the "Spambayes" drop-down list does not appear. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall spambayes several times but with no success. It seems that the original add-in (that doesn't work properly) is now 'stuck' in Outlook-it does not uninstall when I uninstall the spambayes program from the computer. Does this make any sense?

Python is only necessary when building from the source code. You should have downloaded and installed the installer version (.exe). Try it again and make sure that Outlook is "detected" and checked by default. If it isn't "detected", then something weird is happening. * You probably installed Python as a result of Spambayes not appearing right away. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President Ph: 517-803-4197 *NEW* MyTaskFocus 1.1 Get on task.

At least, it doesn't on my machine. I'd recommend configuring Outlook to display SpamBayes' "spam" field, which shows SpamBayes' estimate of the probability that the message is spam. If it's not set, SpamBayes hasn't processed the message. Click SpamBayes on the Outlook toolbar, select Help > About SpamBayes from the menu that drops down, follow the link on the page that is displayed about adding the Spam field to your Outlook views, and follow the directions there. Also, how many messages have you trained on? (Click SpamBayes, then select SpamBayes Manager....) SpamBayes may not be moving messages because it doesn't have enough information to classify them yet. ________________________________ From: spambayes-bounces at python.org [mailto:spambayes-bounces at python.org] On Behalf Of Paul Hirst Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2008 11:48 AM To: spambayes at python.org Subject: [Spambayes] Spambayes & Outlook - not moving messages to specifiedfolder I've got the most recent Spambayes and Outlook 2002, SP3 (10.6822.6830).

My internet and email account is on a server that provides service to 5 of us in a small office. When I start my computer and then start outlook express, I usually get all my mail, no problem. Spambayes filters it appropriately and life is good. Then, what happens is somewhat strange but occurs every time. About 10 minutes later or so, the next time my email seeks new messages, my incoming email fails and I get the following message: The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.naslaw.net', Server: 'localhost', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E. I have a suspicion that its related to the fact that 2 of us in this office are currently using spambayes and we're both operating from the same server "mail.naslaw.net". The reason I sense this is a problem is because sometimes at the bottom of my screen, when receiving mail, I notice that another co-worker's email address is popping up as a server location as its checking for mail.

AVG's email scanner also runs as a proxy and should sit inbetween the mail client and SpamBayes. If all three are running on the same machine, setup for OE is as follows: 1. Launch AVG's Control Center 2. Right-click email scanner and select properties 3. On the ensuing window, again select properties 4. Click on the servers tab 5. Click on POP3 and select Modify 6. In the left pane select connection 7. Click on the button that says Fixed host 8. Assuming defaults, in the box below Fixed host, enter ==> localhost:8110 9. Select OK and close all AVG windows. 10. Again assuming defaults, in Outlook Express, incoming mail server should be either ==> localhost or 127.0.0.1. On the Advanced tab, change the incoming server port to 10110 (AVG's default proxy port). If you are using ports other than the defaults, change accordingly. Email retrieval should then go through this sequence: OE ==> AVG proxy ==> SpamBayes proxy I cannot predict if this will fix your error, but it does set the proper sequence for virus scanning with SpamBayes. Microsoft has the following support article for your error: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/191687 It's possible the error is because of SSL, as indicated in the error message.
