Update of /cvsroot/spambayes/website
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv22688

Modified Files:
	faq.txt 
Log Message:
Add a FAQ about the 'access denied' problem that a lot of pop3proxy
people seem to run into.  We might want to special case this error and
tell them what to do instead, or maybe even just automatically try a
range of different ports.

+ I've just installed SpamBayes, but when I run it I get an access denied error.
+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ 
+ If you use pop3proxy or imapfilter, haven't set anything up, and run it and
+ get an error that ends with ``socket.error: (10013, 'Permission denied')``,
+ then this probably means that port 8880, which SpamBayes is trying to use to
+ present the web interface, is already taken on your machine.  Try using
+ ``pop3proxy.py -u 8881 -b`` (or ``imapfilter.py -u 8881 -b``), or another
+ port that you know is free and available on your machine.
