I believe that the problem is that Outlook pops up the new message notification before SpamBayes gets a chance to process the message. Even if SpamBayes were to delete it, it would be too late since Outlook would have already popped up the new message alert. ________________________________ From: spambayes-bounces+twynnell=vertical.com at python.org [mailto:spambayes-bounces+twynnell=vertical.com at python.org] On Behalf Of Timberwolf Creek Sent: Monday, July 20, 2009 6:42 AM To: spambayes at python.org Subject: [Spambayes] General comment re SpamBayes Hello, I've used SpamBayes V 1.0.4 with Outlook for several years now, and it works flawlessly.

Then your complaint is about Outlook 2007, so needs to be addressed to Microsoft. Good luck ;-) Really, there's nothing SpamBayes (or any other spam filter trying to work with Outlook 2007) can do about this. > I've tried to figure out how to get SpamBayes to just *delete* the stuff it > identifies as spam, as it's been 100% accurate for so long that many times I > just delete all the contents of the spam folder without bothering to check > each message.? But alas, you've chosen, for whatever reason, to disallow > such action. Yes -- and an "auto delete" function wouldn't stop the behavior you dislike anyway. Outlook decides to notify you about new messages /as/ it's downloading new email from your ISP. That happens before any spam filter can look at the messages. It's simply telling you "you have new email" -- which is true, regardless of whether or not you want the new email. > So, I'm going to have to move on.? I'm just spending too much time reacting > to the 'new messages' notification. Then you'll have to move to a different email program, not a different spam filter. For example, you could get a Google GMail account. Their spam filtering is pretty good, but in my experience has a much higher "false positive" rate than SpamBayes (that is, GMail mistakenly calls good messages "spam" more often than SpamBayes does).

(You can thank Microsoft for the confusing names.) SpamBayes does work with Outlook Express, but it's not as integrated. See http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/faq.html#does-spambayes-work-with-outlook-express for further explanation and setup instructions. -----Original Message----- From: spambayes-bounces+jsp=pkc.com at python.org on behalf of clwseattle Sent: Thu 7/30/2009 11:57 AM To: spambayes at python.org Subject: [Spambayes] Can't get it plug-in to load I've tried 3 times... once with all my security turned off. It's on my computer because I've used add/remove to REMOVE it 3 times; I've tried re-starting both OE and my computer. Plug in does not appear in my Outlook. I'm running Outlook Express 6 (2004). In your troubleshooting you say: a.. Check that Outlook shows the addin as enabled. 1.. Start Outlook, and select Tools->Options to display the main Options dialog. 2.. Select the tab labeled Other, then click on the Advanced button. 3.. Click on the COM Add-Ins button. 4.. If the SpamBayes addin is not listed, then SpamBayes should be reinstalled (Note that running regsvr32.exe outlook_addin.dll or outlook_addin_register.exe from the SpamBayes directory may also solve this problem). 5.. If the SpamBayes addin is listed but not checked, then simply check it and close the dialog. HOWEVER, I don't have a tab labeled "OTHER"... I have General, Read, Receipts, Send, Compose, Signature, Spelling, Security, Connection and Maintenance. The ONLY tab with an Advance button is Security. No where could I find the "COM Add-Ins" .
