I now think I recall that the solution is to substitute a new "Outlook profile"; indeed, there may even be a Microsoft paper dealing with the issue. (N.B.: A user's Outlook profile is not the same as his Windows roaming profile or any of the other profiles one commonly sees mentioned. At least pre-Vista, "profile" is the most overloaded word in the Microsoft argot.) Creating a new Outlook profile (and persuading Outlook to use it) is not exactly trivial, and a discussion of how to do it (even if I thought I could explain it adequately) is beyond the scope of this mailing list. But I'm almost certain that there *is* a Microsoft paper that describes how to do that. Assuming I'm remembering correctly, note that the solution is independent of whether Spambayes had a role in creating the probem.
