Summary: log file for error message.

Initial Comment:
The following is the latest log file for SB.  I've tried 
installing and uninstalling several times and continue to 
get "no filterable mail items selected".  

I am running XPPro, SP1, P4, 512MB Ram, Office 2003, 
SB ver1.0rc1.

Any ideas?

Any (filterable) message can be filtered.  This doesn't mean
only new mail - the criteria are in my earlier comment.

What do you mean a lot of filtering on every message?  (I
don't understand the comment at all).

We do not recommend pretraining spambayes with a lot of
mail.  See the wiki: http://entrian.com/sbwiki/TrainingIdeas
for extensive discussion.  That should work, however, as
long as the messages are filterable.

Did the folder of messages arrive normally in Outlook?  If,
for example, they were imported from OE, then the import
process may have mangled them (a common problem is Outlook
stripping all the headers).

To be clear - if you click "Delete as spam" or "Recover from
spam" on a message that is regularly recieved by Outlook, do
you get the error?

It is for every message that I was attempting training on.  
However, today I realized a brand new email came into the 
junk suspects folder and was able to be recovered from 
SPAM.  So this means that only new messages can be 
filtered?  Yikes that's a whole lot of filtering on every 
message.  Usually I make a folder called SPAM and fill it with 
all the junk mail before I download SB.  Then I train the 
application program on all those as SPAM and all those 
presently in the inbox as Good.  

It just will not let me do this.  That error message "no 
filterable mail items selected" comes up every time I highlight 
a new message and hit the "delete as spam" button.

Does this happen with all messages, or just one in particular?

Not every message can be filtered - it has to be mail that
has been received (i.e. not sent items or drafts), and has
to be messages (i.e. not calendar items, tasks, etc).  Some
other items (special Outlook messages like anti-virus
warnings etc) are also not filterable.
