Possible, yes. Easily is another matter. Spambayes installs as a a plugin in Outlook. To use it with a different client, it must be set up as a proxy server, sitting between your mail feed from your host and your email client. There is a Thunderbird Add-on called Thunderbayes designed to ease Thunderbird<->Spambayes integration. See https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/thunderbayes/ I use Thunderbird as a newsreader, not an email client, so I haven't tried it, but it may assist you. > CW ______ Dennis https://plus.google.com/u/0/105128793974319004519 _______________________________________________ SpamBayes@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Info/Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
