Yes, this is the OE problem I mentioned in the first email, which is fixed in 1.1 by having the address as [EMAIL PROTECTED], properly separated by a semi-colon. > Tony: I see what you mean about the bug in 1.0.4 - I tried every > which-way to get it to work, but it seems that you just cannot > change the displayed values that are annotated to the TO or > Subject lines. Any edits to the "notate_to:" lines results in no > annotation at all. The way the notate options work is that they check to see if the header_X_string that is to be added is in the option. For example, if the header_spam_string is "spam" (i.e. the default) and notate_to contains "spam", then spam messages will be notated. So you need to change both the header_spam_string value to "my-own-spam-tag", *and* change notate_to to include "my-own-spam-tag". The catch is that with 1.0.x the notate options will only accept "spam", "ham" and "unsure" as valid values. > Since Outlook Express' filters can't read the > X-Spambayes-Classification value in the eMail header, this > doesn't seem to be solvable at the moment. This is the real problem, of course (the notate options are pretty ugly). However, it seems pretty unlikely that this will ever be solved; I doubt Microsoft has any plans to update OE. > So the important question for me now is: How far off is the > release of 1.1.x, complete with an installer executable?

There really isn't much left to do to do a 1.1a2, and then if people can be convinced to test that, a 1.1b1 could follow fairly quickly afterwards, and (assuming no major problems were found) a final 1.1. This process could easily be done in a month (again assuming no major problems found). However, I really need to get paid work done first, then catch up on releasing the python-dev summaries, then get my thesis complete. So I really don't know when I'll find the time to do it. If people bug me, I'll try as hard as I can to get 1.1a2 out this month. but I'm not promising anything. > For my own information, to go the CVS route, would I have to > install Python and download the 12 files at: > http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/spambayes/spambayes/ then > run setup.py, or is it more complex than that? Sorry, never > encountered Python before SpamBayes. 1. Install Python <http://python.org/download> 2. Ideally, install pywin32 <http://pywin32.sf.net> (that will take you to a 'this isn't the page' page with a link to the real one, whose URL I can never remember) 3. Install some sort of CVS client, e.g. <http://tortoisecvs.sf.net> 4. Do a CVS checkout of the spambayes source, as described on the CVS page at <http://sf.net/projects/spambayes> > BTW, is there any documentation available on the legal entries > for bayescustomize.ini?

Options.py is fairly readable, and has the possibilities, and you can read that via viewcvs. If you have the source, you can follow the steps in FAQ 4.12: <http://spambayes.org/faq.html#now-i-know-what-the-format-looks-like- but-what-options-do-i-need-to-set> > If no documentation, what does > "include_evidence: True" do? It adds an X-Spambayes-Evidence header that includes the clues (and scores) that were used to classify the message. =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. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
