I don't know whether this will make a difference for you, but try installing SpamBayes not into the "Program Files (x86)" folder but a subdirectory of your user directory.

Von: SpamBayes [mailto:spambayes-bounces+hnowak=cincom....@python.org] Im Auftrag von Arch Hughes Gesendet: Sonntag, 31. Dezember 2017 03:54 An: spambayes@python.org Betreff: [Spambayes] Bug Report: Outlook 2016 Bug Summary: outlook_addin.dll is not recognized by Outlook 2016 as a valid addin. (Sorry, I don't know how to navigate and use git. I pulled down this file: https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/0m1jf3fecsxcxmd5/artifacts/spambayes%2Fwindows%2Fspambayes-1.1b3.exe Norton was full of warnings about this file not being commonly downloaded. I ran a scan on it and Norton reported no threats. Step by step report: 1. I had outlook running, and your program told me to close. 2. The default check-box for MS Outlook was checked, and I left it checked (it correctly said "Outlook appears to be installed). No other boxes were checked. 3. It offered to convert a 1.0 data base to 1.1 format, I left that checked. I did not check "Register add-in for all users" since I'm the only regular use of this computer. 4. I accepted the Python agreement 5. I reported the selected options correctly, so I pressed the Install button. 6. It loaded the files into C:\Program Files (x86)\SpamBayes, and had checked the View welcome.html and Convert the database from 1.0 to 1.1 options. I pressed Finish 7. The welcome file displayed in Firefox correctly after I told Windows to open it with Firefox. 8. I saw no evidence that a conversion process ran at this point, though I might have missed it while looking at the web page. 9. I restarted Outlook 2016. 10. In the add-in section of Outlook I saw no evidence of any changes. I still had a disabled add-in for Spambayes (carried forward from Outlook 2007). [cid:image001.png@01D3818D.7080FDF0] 11. It was, however, pointing to the right place and the addin.dll had your new 28 Dec 17 date. So I enabled it. 12. I stopped Outlook and restarted it. 13. Outlook started successfully, but the SpamBayes add-in was disabled. Again, I checked to enable it in case I failed to do that correctly. (While there I also disabled the Exchange, OneNote, and SharePoint add-ins since I don't use those tools.) 14. I stopped Outlook and restarted it, again. 15. This time SpamBayes moved to the "Inactive Application Add-ins" section. [cid:image002.png@01D3818E.A006B690] 16. I went back into the Add-ins screen and checked SpamBayes again. (I also un-cheded Norton, Social connector, and Skype add-ins.) 17. I stopped and restarted outlook again. 18. The Norton tab was gone from the ribbon now (expected since I unchecked that). There was still not SpamBayes tools visible. SpamBayes remains in the Inactive section. 19. I decided to try to add the new .dll at this point, from your install, and got the following error from Outlook: [cid:image007.png@01D383A7.0523B680] 20. I went back to your install directory and double-clicked on "outlook_addin_register.exe". I got no feedback. At this point I don't have any more ideas for getting around the "bad dll" message, so I await any feedback you might care to provide. I looked at the HTML page and didn't see anything there of use for this issue. One contributor suggests that the .dll is 32-bit and this version of Outlook 2016 is 64-bit. This may, then, be a duplicate of bug #903?
