Summary: Outlook keeps downloading same spam

Initial Comment:
>From the spambayes mailing list:

"""
Someone please tell me why I keep downloading the 
same email from my POP mailbox when SPAM Bayes 
Filtering is enabled. The email comes down and
is immediately moved to the correct SPAM folder.  
However, the same email is downloaded every time 
I "Send/Receive".

version of Windows - Windows 2000 Pro, Office's Outlook 
XP

the version of SpamBayes - SpamBayes-Outlook-Setup-
005.exe (lastest try), and SpamBayes-Outlook-Setup-
003.exe (earlier attempt)

FWIW, I think this happens to me, too, but only one one of 
the accounts that I check, which happens to be the one that 
is set to leave the mail on the server (although I note that 
the second poster here doesn't have that set).

Basically, every now and then Outlook fails to successfully 
download all the mail from that account.  If I restart Outlook, 
all is ok, but it downloads everything that is on the account.  
I'm too lazy to figure if this is an Outlook problem or a 
spambayes one.

Anyway, if you need someone running cvs code to test 
anything to fix this, then I'm happy to figure out if this is 
spambayes related or not, and if it is, be a guinea pig.  Just 
let me know.

Another report from the spambayes list:

"""
I got Spambayes working on my computer that uses Outlook 
2000, but when I installed it on my laptop which has Outlook 
2002, it gets a funny error.  This error consists of 
downloading the same messages every time 
it "sends/receives".  I now have multiple copies of the same 
emails, whether they are SPAM, HAM, or MaybeSpam. I have 
checked to make sure I am not leaving copies of message on 
my POP server. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I 
would like to hear them before I revert back to Outlook 2000. 

...

Both my machines are using Window 2000 Professional and 
the version of SpamBayes is SpamBayes-Outlook-Setup-
005.exe.  I have also tried version 003.
