[spambayes-dev] improving dumbdbm's survival chances...

[G. Armour Van Horn]

I'm running again now, with exported and reimported data, although there
really wasn't that much of it.

My shortcut has this for a target: "C:\Program
Files\spambayes\pop3proxy.py" -D hammie.pkl

My bayescustomize.ini looks like this:

[Headers]
include_score:True
[html_ui]
display_to:True
[Storage]
persistent_storage_file:hammie.pkl
persistent_use_database: False
[pop3proxy]
listen_ports:1110
remote_servers:mail.whidbey.com
add_mailid_to:header
notate_subject:True
[pop3proxy]
add_mailid_to:header

We'll see if it continues to behave, and I guess I need to do the same
with the other machine running the proxy, although I don't think I'll
bother to save the data on that one.
