You have to unarchive it and it's support files.  I keep mine in a
folder called (big surprise) 'bayesit' that is in the 'TheBat' program
tree.

Next you start TB and go to Option, Prefernces and select Plugins at
the bottom of the list.

Click Add and then point it at the 'bayesit' folder and select the
'bayesit.tbp'

That will get things started.  Next you have to start showing it what
is good email (i.e. 'ham') and what is spam (that is train it).  You
can do that in several different ways.  You can just start using TB as
before.  Without anything to go on it *should* treat everything as
ham.  You then tell it what is spam.  Eventually it will start to
figure things out.

If you have saves a lot of spam and ham samples, you can train it on
those saved letters.  That will speed up the training process.

That should get you started.  Ask if you have any other questions.
Someone will chime in<g>
