Outlook Express and Outlook process mail in entirely
different ways. Although the same core SpamBayes classification engine is used,
different SpamBayes applications are needed to get access to the incoming mail
and provide training and configuration.
It is possible to configure both of the SpamBayes
applications to use the same training database, but this is not necessarily
a good idea. The Outlook Addin and the POP3 or IMAP applications for Outlook
Express have slightly different views of the incoming mail which will have an
effect on the spam clues that are generated by each. This could potentially have
a negative impact on your accuracy. You would also need to make sure that you
never run both SpamBayes applications at the same time because it can cause your
training data to become corrupted if two applications try to update the same
database file at the same time.

Subject: [spambayes-dev] Spambayes single installation for multiple mailclients
Question: Is there a
way to install a single instance of Spambayes and have it work with 2 mail
clients installed on the same computer? I.e. Outlook Express v2003 (Corporate
email) client and Outlook 2003 (Personal email) clients. Thanks in advance for
your time and efforts on my behalf.
