Summary: Pop3Proxy won't run: no module 'win32api'
Initial Comment:
Downloaded 1.0a6 and ran "python setup.py install"
without problems.
The readme then says: "Now launch pop3proxy, either
by running the "pop3proxy_service.py" script (for those
using Windows 2000, Windows NT or Windows XP), or
the "sb_server.py" script (for everyone else)."
I'm running Windows XP, so I did "python
pop3proxy_service.py" and got:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pop3proxy_service.py", line 24, in ?
import win32api
ImportError: No module named win32api
I've got Python 2.3. How do I get past this?

When you ran with "install", did you get something
like "Installing service pop3proxy to Python class
C:\spambayes_1_0\windows\pop3proxy_
service.Service
Service installed"? (your path will be different, obviously).
Did you get "Starting service pop3proxy" after running
with "start"?
If you look in the Services control panel (via the
Administrative Tools one), you should see the
pop3proxy/spambayes service listed. It should say that it is
started.
If you run "pop3proxy_service.py debug" you should get the
service starting but printing out debugging information into
the console. Could you let us know what you get then? It
might be that the service has started, but can't use port
8880 for some reason.

Okay, I installed win32all, but I'm not understanding how to
start the service properly. "python pop3proxy_service.py"
gives me parameter information, so I tried "python
pop3proxy_service.py install" followed by "python
pop3proxy_service.py start" from the download directory.
However, http://localhost:8880 produced no page. Do I need
to run this script from somewhere else, or as some particular
user? I feel like I'm being dense, but I don't see any more
information in the ReadMe to help me get this set up. Thanks
for your help.

I'll update the readme to reflect the additional dependancy.

You need to install win32all.
