[Spambayes] IMAP Error: Must specify server details first

[Tony Meyer]

> Wow, Tony, such service! Do you find time for anything else?

Well, a great many other people also work on the project, of course :)  And
sometimes (like now) replies can take some time (sorry) - and even then,
there are still 212 spambayes at python.org messages that I would like time to
address after this one...

Ctrl-C is a perfectly valid way of stopping it - however, try not to do this
when it's in the midst of a training session.  I'm happy to accept
suggestions of alternative methods of shutting it down.

imapfilter doesn't have a log, just whatever gets printed to the output
window.  (This is the same if you run any of the scripts from source).

It's very strange that you don't get an error, and can't access the web
interface.  Has anything else changed in this time?  If you telnet to port
8880 when imapfilter is running can you connect?  (Or you could use netstat
to see if it's listed).
