I am using Windows XP, with all updates, and Outlook 2003.  Spam Bayes had been installed and working with no problem. I have Binary version 1.0.4.  Then problems arose and I attempted, after going through the instructions in the troubleshooting guide, to use the report a bug link.  But that link would not work.
 
    Here is the problem I found: The "Delete As Spam" button ceased working.  I thought Spam Bayes was otherwise working, so I followed those instructions in the troubleshooting guide, including eventually deletion of the "dat" file.  The buttons were rebuilt but still did not work. It then occurred to me that actually Spam Bayes was not filtering either, at least it was not filtering as effectively as it did before, with a much higher proportion of messages in the suspects folder than the junk folder. I consulted the log file as indicated in the troubleshooting guide, and it appears to me that the log file is indeed reporting errors.  E.g., here are two excerpts from the log file:
 
1. WARNING: Bayes database has 4240 messages, but training database has 4071
pythoncom error: Python error invoking COM method.
 
2. bsddb._db.DBRunRecoveryError: (-30982, 'DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery -- fatal region error detected; run recovery')
Moving and spam training message 'In debt you can get help today' -  Training on message 'In debt you can get help today' in 'Ira Ellman/Junk Suspects - pythoncom error: Python error invoking COM method.
 
 
Help would be appreciated!
 
Thank you.
