The SpamBayes plugin is far superior to K9 for an Outlook/Exchange combination. I use K9 at Home (My wife won't use TB! and prefers OE - as it changes less often), I use Outlook/Exchange with SpamBayes at work (Diary & contacts mainly), and prefer TB! with Bayesit for e-mail (or more recently the opensource Bayes plugin). All work pretty well, with the minimum of setup, but they each have their restrictions (e.g. K9 won't work with IMAP/Exchange, The TB! plugins are specific to TB! but integrate tightly (e.g. right click learning), as SpamBayes is specific to Outlook (not OE) If the user wants to go a different route completely - then get them to try Thunderbird / Mozilla as it has inbuilt Bayes based spam filtering and works equally well with IMAP & POP (if you have a 7Ghz dual processor machine with 3Gb RAM that is ;) -- regards, Graham Using The Bat! 2.05 Beta/1 assisted by under Windows XP 5.1 (Build 2600, Service Pack 1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------Notice: This e-mail message, together with any attachments, contains information of Merck & Co., Inc.
