I upgraded 1.0.4 to 1.1a3 using the Outlook addin, which runs a utility to convert the database format from 1.0 to 1.1 upon installation.
The 1.1a3 has not been catching the graphics spam either, definitely the key will be integrating the OCR stuff. thanks, Roland; -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2006 9:18 AM To: Claude Jones Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Spambayes] updating from 1.0.4 to 1.1a3 Claude> I'm currently running 1.0.4 on a Fedora Core 5 box using the Claude> proxy server.

I run SpamBayes from the CVS repository and never uninstall, so I suspect you'll be okay just installing 1.1a3 over 1.0.4. You will also need to install PIL (http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/) and ocrad (http://www.gnu.org/software/ocrad/ocrad.html) to take advantage of the OCR capabilities. You should probably also install PyDNS (http://pydns.sourceforge.net/) to get the domain-name-to-ip-address mapping. It's unfortunate that there are external dependencies, but we don't have the resources to reinvent a bunch of different wheels. Sourceforge doesn't emphasize the release notes, but they are there: http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=442102&group_id= 61702 and should be at least glanced at.
