Summary: Different scores between Outlook plugin and SB source

Initial Comment:
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.  I know this 
may not be the best place to post this:

I've got the outlook plugin installed - works great.
I'm also trying Andrew Dalkes SpamBayesCuller:

http://www.entrian.com/sbwiki/SpamBayesCuller

using the same training database.   Outlook scores 
emails more accurately than the culler script.  I've 
checked the scores on identical messages - the culler 
script scored 0.477 where the plugin scored it 0.999

Any ideas why or where I should start to look?

THANKS!

Take a specific email and generate clue lists from both ways 
of scoring it.  That's the only way to start.  I don't expect 
the scores to be identical, because Outlook destroys the 
MIME structure of incoming email, so the proxy literally sees a 
different message than the Outlook addin sees.  That should 
be a minor difference, though.  Differences in option settings 
probably account for it -- but no way to tell without those 
clue lists.
