From RKJLRosich at Qwest.net Sat Apr 1 16:28:07 2006 From: RKJLRosich at Qwest.net (Ray & Judy Rosich) Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2006 07:28:07 -0700 Subject: [Spambayes] FW: SpamBayes no longer enabled in Outlook Message-ID: As is my usual habit, last night when I booted my PC, I downloaded any updates for the Norton Internet Security Suite using LiveUpdate, for SpyBotS&D, & for AdAware. The last two had no updates. Following that the SpamBayes buttons disappeared from the Outlook toolbar. As directed by the Troubleshooting steps, I went: --1) Tools/Options.../Other(tab)/Advanced Options.../COM Add-Ins --2) Checked the box for SpamBayes.OutlookAddIn and then clicked OK. --3) I OK'd out of each window in turn, and when I got back to Outlook, there were still no SpamBayes buttons or controls of any kind. --4) I went through '1' above again and found that the SpamBayes.OutlookAddIn box was unchecked, so I checked it and then clicked OK. --5) To double-check that it was not 'checked', I clicked COM Add-Ins, and I found that it was unchecked. --6) Nothing I do seems to be able to activate SpamBayes on my outlook! I even uninstalled and reinstalled SpamBayes. Following the reinstall all the file 'spambayes1.log' contains is the single line "Registered: SpamBayes.OutlookAddin" and since then, no further log files have been created (since SpamBayes.OutlookAddin isn't active). --7) I am running Microsoft Outlook 2002 (10.2627.2625), Windows 2000 Pro 5.0.2195 SP2 Build 2195, SpamBayes Outlook AddIn 0.0.2, and Norton Internet Security 2004. I found that the combination of SpamBayes and the Norton Anti-Spam managed to catch almost everything and I'd like them both back and active. Does anyone have any ideas about what is going on here and what I might be able to do about it? Thanks! ...

I had a problem this morning when I opened outlook. A dialog box came up and said there was a problem and to click OK if I want to fix the problem. The dialog box came up again and said I had the same problem. I have uninstalled Spambays and downloaded the new version but it still does not work. In looking at my computer the uninstall did not uninstall all the related programs. Have you seen this problem before? Can you get someone to help install the newer version and get it running?

Look at the Faq to the Point 2.4 and then it works (I have Eudora 7.0.1.0 - the latest; Sponsored mode) for POP as described (even for more than one account). However, I cannot configure it for SMTP - it doesn't works. The reason is still unknow, I use Avast! Antivirus, Spambayes 1.0.4 and Eudora (+ Windows XP SP2). The message is sent and with the last step (Eudora says ".") no answer comes from the Server. I want to have a look later and eventually post a separate threat whn i find the time... although it is made now :-). Apart that (which is a pity because a part of the self learning is not used :-() it works OK. T. de Borman I don't use Eudora but I may have clients who do. So as a matter of interest, is the SpamBayes installation for Eudora any different to the installation for Outlook Express? Are there Eudora-specific things that have to be taken into account? Obviously the precise means of assigning "localhost" as the POP3 server will differ for all eMail clients.

It seems to me that this is as it should be. Whether or not a message is "certified virus free" and whether or not it is spam are completely separate issues in my mind, but if it turns out that all certified messages are ham, SpamBayes will figure that out based on the training. Personally, I'm skeptical of "certified virus free" tag lines. What's to keep me or anyone else from adding the text at the end of my messages? But if you wish to set up your mail client to treat all messages with a "certified virus free" tag line as ham, you can probably do so. You appear to be using Outlook Express, in which case I imagine you can set up a rule to process such messages before your spam filtering rule takes effect.

We seem to have configured Outlook just fine. But, following directions for Outlook Express, we've hit a snag... whenever we try to send messages, OE asks for fresh password and login information from the server. The saved password and login information for our ISP (Earthlink.net) doesn't work any longer. Replacing "pop.earthlink.net" with "localhost" seems to be preventing us from accessing our email account at Earthlink. Is this problem specific to Earthlink, or did we do something wrong in setting up SpamBayes for Outlook Express?

When another user logs into the same PC under different login credentials, SpamBayes will not be evident in Outlook. If you have a situation where more than one person uses a given PC under their own separate login credentials, you will need to enable SpamBayes for all users. I have written a detailed description of how to do that in "end-user speak". Let me know if you need it and I'll send you the PDF.

(This is something of a hack, as there doesn't seem to be any way to guarantee that Outlook's rules run before classification, so you can tune the delay time.) If you create an Outlook rule that moves messages from the inbox to a whitelist folder (or some variation on that theme), it should have the desired effect. That said, I'd recommend against it unless you have a demonstrated need, for a couple of reasons. - It may not be necessary. The sender is among the data SpamBayes trains on. If you consistently train messages from people in your address book as ham, it will tend to classify future messages accordingly. - It may lead to poorer results. It's not hard to spoof a sender address (or to create a virus that sends messages from someone in your whitelist). If you allow SpamBayes to classify your messages, it will look at the content as well as the address. If it's well-trained, it will correctly classify spam even if the address is spoofed.

FYI, a better place to ask this sort of question is the spambayes at python.org list, which is intended for issues with using SpamBayes. The spambayes-dev list is primarily for discussions regarding the development of the SpamBayes program. This error message is not something that is produced by SpamBayes. Most likely it is just a coincidence that this change occurred around the same time that you installed SpamBayes. I would ask your network administrator if anything has changed in the mail system settings. For security reasons, many companies require additional security measures to send mail to external addresses that are not required for internal addresses. -- Kenny Pitt From rcoe at CambridgeMA.GOV Sat Apr 15 03:12:57 2006 From: rcoe at CambridgeMA.GOV (Coe, Bob) Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006 21:12:57 -0400 Subject: [Spambayes] Please help -- SpamBayes user now can't re-installSpamBayes after hard drive re-format Message-ID: <42393C9DA7930245AB540667607F4F5006259BA8@SPIKE.city> Sure seems like a DEP issue to me.

DEP is a system designed to prevent programs either accidentally or deliberately doing things that they shouldn't. You can change the DEP settings in the "System" Control Panel, via the top "Settings" button of the "Advanced" tab, and then the "Data Execution Protocol" tab of the dialog that opens. Unfortunately, it's not the SpamBayes code itself that causes the problem here, but one of the libraries that SpamBayes uses. We're somewhat at the mercy of the developers of that library for a fix - we'll definitely include it when there is one. =Tony.Meyer -- Please always include the list (spambayes at python.org) in your replies (reply-all), and please don't send me personal mail about SpamBayes. http://www.massey.ac.nz/~tameyer/writing/reply_all.html explains this.

I've recently discovered a little bit of an interesting 'problem' that, while possibly not being 100% spambayes related, does cause a problem in using spambayes. I was curious if anyone else might have seen this and know an answer/workaround. I have an AMB64 system. I run Gentoo Linux in native boot on x86_64 architecture (64 bit). I also have a Windows XP boot on the same system. In Windows XP, I have coLinux installed. At this point, coLinux is still 32bit, so my coLinux boot is a 32bit boot. I use this to run my Linux processes while in Windows. So at any time, I could be running Linux in either a 32bit or 64bit environemnt. The only problem program at this point is Spambayes. The database is not compatible between 32bit and 64bit systems. I don't suppose anyone has found a way to use spambayes between 32 and 64 bit systems?

Try Tools -> Options ... -> Security -> Download Pictures -> Change Automatic Download Settings ... SpamBayes doesn't muck with that, but MS has changed the default settings, and it's at least possible your settings got changed by installing an MS "security update" of one kind or another. But if that's the problem, I don't think you would have described the graphics as being "stripped out" -- instead, when you're looking at an email with a graphic Outlook hasn't downloaded, Outlook displays a message telling you to right-click and select an option if you'd _like_ to see the graphic(s) in that specific email. If you don't see a message like that, then I've never seen what you're seeing.

But doesn't this just bring us back to the problem with 1.0.4 that any TO addresses with "spam" in the domain name (and I have one) will be classified as spam regardless? We've already discussed the related problems with 1.0.4 as far as the ubiquitous Outlook Express is concerned. 1.0.4 has an insurmountable problem in that respect; 1.1a1 has (in your words) "a serious pop3proxy bug" (you didn't say what) and, believe me Tony, it is quite inconceivable that any "average user" is even going to attempt the CVS route. So where to? The reason I started writing simplified instructions for SpamBayes was because I was recommending it to all and sundry and then getting a flood of "what the bloody hell does this mean" with regard to comments and instructions throughout SpamBayes.org. I have a complete end-user-friendly coverage of spam management in general and SpamBayes in particular ready to go, except for the fact I cannot find a satisfactory solution to the non-Outlook-for-average-users scenario. Average users will not install Python, pywin32, a CVS client and checkout the SpamBayes source. It is beyond them. I'm trying to contribute to "the cause", but I seem to have hit a brick wall with the case of other-than-Outlook clients. Hopefully I'm just missing something obvious, in which case I'll be delighted to accept an ass-whoppin' in return for the solution. -- We take security very seriously.

Stephen, AFAIK SpamBayes doesn't have the ability to delete anything, so I suggest you check very carefully the settings on the various tabs & options under the SpamBayes Manager (under the toolbar button just labelled "SpamBayes"). Also, have a look at the log file after you have recovered a message: SpamBayes --> SpamBayes Manager --> Advanced (tab) --> Diagnostics (button) --> View Log (button) Search the log for the word: Recovering You should find something like "Recovering to folder 'Inbox'..." or some indication of where else it might be going.

The more people that pester me to get a release done, the more quickly it will be done (if the time it takes me to delete/reply to the messages exceeds that which it would take to do the release, then it just makes sense). I know that almost no-one will go the CVS route, which is why I very rarely recommend it. The situation is that 1.0.4 will work, but (with OE) has flawed filtering (iff you get ham that has spam in the To: and Subject:). 1.1a1 will not work - you will get SpamBayes taking huge amounts of memory and corrupted databases. > I'm trying to contribute to "the cause", but I seem to have hit a > brick wall with the case of other-than-Outlook clients. The brick wall is the limited time I and the other developers have a the moment, which has held up 1.1a2 by a year or so.

Yup, the bsddb database format is notoriously platform-dependent; not even necessarily transportable across two 32-bit boxes.

This time is slightly more complicated, mostly as a result of not having done one for so long. Really the only thing holding it up is that the binary (the Outlook plug-in part of it) needs to be build with Outlook 2000 (not 2002 or 2003), otherwise it won't work for Outlook 2000 users. But I no longer have access to an Outlook 2000 install...so I put out a call (on spambayes-dev) today asking for help with this - I expect something will turn up in a day or two. > Also, how do you normally announce when a new version has been > made available for download?

SpamBayes was originally designed with ZODB in mind, so there are secret pressures ensuring that you'll succeed :-) > Would two OIBTrees (token to count) be more efficient than a > single OOBTree? (And do we care if it would be?) Only way to know for sure is to try both and measure, but I wouldn't bother. `wordinfo` _conceptually_ maps a string to a pair of integers, so an OOBTree is the clearest implementation. It's also _probably_ the fastest: two lookup operations per string potentially means twice as much disk I/O to traverse two distinct BTree structures. BTW, ZODB has an in-memory object cache, to avoid disk I/O for objects already fetched from disk. The default cache size is something like 400 (objects), which is much smaller than SpamBayes could make good use of. Specifying cache_size=10000 would be a better starting point ("the objects" stored by SB are relatively tiny, while the default is geared more to use in Zope, where "an object" is typically much larger). >> a bug in those makes it possible to lose information silently >> on a 64-bits box when storing integers that don't actually fit in 32 >> bits: >> >> http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope/1592 >> >> I strongly doubt SpamBayes tickles that bug, though. > Well, it could when someone has 4.3 billion ham or spam trained, > right? ;) Yes ;-) If we use an OOBTree, that bug doesn't arise, and there's no inherent limit on integer sizes then (if they overflow to Python unbounded ints, an OOBTree is just as happy with those as with "little" ints).

It's keeps track of words that have appeared in mails you've told it as spam, and based on the frequency both of the occurrance of those words in mail you've told it as spam, and the frequency of those words occurring in a particular mail that's being checked, it calculates a probability that this is or is not spam. Then, based on that probability, it moves mail to junk, junk suspects, or leaves it be. Now, when you recover a particular mail from junk, it retrains spambayes on the words that are in that mail, which generally won't be enough to overwhelm the weight of the statistics it's already gathered. What you need to do is keep recovering from junk mails that you don't want to be there, and eventually, you'll have readjusted the statistics in its word database, so it'll make mistakes less and less often. Very rarely does anyone get to a situation where it NEVER misclassifies any email, so it's always a good idea to check your junk every now and then, to recover mail that you don't want to be there. All that said, what you've discovered is not a bug, it's the way spambayes works. Simply recovering a particular mail from junk is probably not enough to make sure that that identical mail won't be classified as junk the next time. Keep working with it, and it'll become as accurate as statistics will allow it to be!

If this is the case, whether it happens or not depends on how you configure SpamBayes. In the main Outlook window, click the SpamBayes tab, then SpamBayes Manager..., then click the Training tab. There should be checkboxes that allow you specify whether or not training occurs when you move messages. (I'm pretty sure this is in 1.0.4, but I've been running 1.1a1 for so long that I no longer remember what the differences are.) Training on dragging is mentioned in the "Welcome to SpamBayes" topic in the Outlook plug-in's help system. Perhaps it should be more prominent.

You train on anything that is not classified correctly, either by clicking the Spam or Not Spam buttons as appropriate or by dragging an incorrectly classified message to the folder it belongs in. You take no training action on anything that's correctly classified. So, let's say a message shows up in your inbox that should have been classified as spam. You can either select it and click the Spam button or drag it to your spam folder. If you find ham in your spam or unsure folder, click Not Spam or drag it to your inbox. Ham in your inbox you read; spam in your spam folder you gleefully delete. (That's what I do, anyway.) If that doesn't help, maybe someone else can take a crack at answering. ________________________________ From: spambayes-bounces at python.org [mailto:spambayes-bounces at python.org] On Behalf Of Gil Hurlbut Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 3:44 PM To: spambayes at python.org Subject: Re: [Spambayes] Incremental Training for ham in Outlook Plugin?

In the virtual users home directory was an old .spambayesrc file in a wrong format. The sb_filter.py tried to interpret that file and crashed. I haven't seen that problem by invoking sb_filter.py manually because it was a virtual user that only exists in mysql. The real system user for mail is "vmail". If I invoked the command manually as vmail user, spambayes looked in /home/vmail for a .spambayesrc file which doesn't exist, so it worked. If maildrop invoked that command with xfilter, $HOME was /home/vmail/domain/user where the wrong .spambayesrc existed, so it failed. bye, b52 > > Hi guys, > > maybe someone can help me with this one.

Message-ID: <16E2027582CDB74180896CDB4B8CC1F901D047D3@PKCVT01.pkc.com> This is one for the training gurus. You can find a discussion of various training approaches on the SpamBayes wiki (http://www.entrian.com/sbwiki/TrainingIdeas). That said, I'll put my oar in. In general, the recommendation of the gurus is along the lines of "don't worry, be happy:" as long as you're getting satisfactory results, just use the training buttons to correct classification errors. The bottom line is the quality of the results you're getting; the suggestion to keep the ham:spam ratio close to 1 is a guideline that seems to help achieve that result. I follow that approach, and when I notice that I'm getting unsatisfactory results over a period of time, I just discard my training database and start over. SpamBayes learns very quickly, so I don't find it worthwhile to try to tune the database over time. Another thing to look at is the threshold scores for possible and certain spam. I've dropped my certain spam threshold somewhat as I've become more confident in my training data (it's now .70). This means fewer possible spam messages that I then train as spam, which reduces the ham:spam imbalance. I'm currently getting good results (>95% correctly classified) with 53 ham and 171 spam trained on. ________________________________ From: spambayes-bounces at python.org [mailto:spambayes-bounces at python.org] On Behalf Of Gil Hurlbut Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 4:35 PM To: spambayes at python.org Subject: Re: [Spambayes] Incremental Training for ham in Outlook Plugin?

In fact, when these users wanted to join a file in a mail, all files were available.. except zip files !! It was a special spambayes problem, because only computers with spam-bayes were touched. Solution found : install a new profile with the same parameters as before. Launch it. Close it. Re-launch the first profile. Zip files are now available to be joined. Crazy, don't you think ? Have you already undergone a problem like this ? Have you got an other solution to go over it ? Thanks a lot.
