I'll let you know when its ready. Thanks for your feedback so far. Kevin – I’m currently working on a new version of ThunderBayes that updates the SpamBayes review page on manual training.

Although I manually trained it on a representative spam/ham sampling, and thus get pretty good results, I'm seeing a fair bit of repetitive missed spam showing up in my inbox even though I keep trying to train using ThunderBayes. Conspicuously, the "total emails trained" count displayed by SpamBayes does not change when I train messages using ThunderBayes. Hi Daniel,

I’m still not convinced ThunderBayes is training my SpamBayes installation. Although I manually trained it on a representative spam/ham sampling, and thus get pretty good results, I’m seeing a fair bit of repetitive missed spam showing up in my inbox even though I keep trying to train using ThunderBayes.

Conspicuously, the “total emails trained” count displayed by SpamBayes does not change when I train messages using ThunderBayes.

BTW, I enjoy reading the Sitepoint Tech Times. The errors you're seeing are due to a problem with the new column handler support in Thunderbird 2.0. To tell the truth, I hadn't even noticed, but now that I look my error console is full of them too. It looks like the custom column handler interface was changed between 2.0b2 and 2.0rc1. This is a minor thing--it does not affect the spam training code. You can download ThunderBayes 0.2.2 from the latest entry here on this blog or wait for it to be approved on Mozilla Add-ons. P.S. I have plans to make it easier to tell if the manual training done by ThunderBayes is actually working. Right now the best way is to use ThunderBayes exclusively to do all SpamBayes training. You should know pretty quickly if its not working by the number of spam emails making to your inbox. Shameless plug: ever since I've started using ThunderBayes the number of spam messages that get through to my inbox has dropped to almost none. Kevin – thanks for trying ThunderBayes.

Ok, the button seems to work, but not in the way I expected.. ;) ThunderBayes trained SpamBayes, but when I click on "Review Messages", I can train SpamBayes on the same messages again... I thought training with ThunderBayes would remove them from that list... sorry for the inconvinience, I may have caused. keep up the good work! Me again.

Somehow the button does not work on my computer... I'm running spambayes 1.04. The host and port of the webinterface are correctly set up in thunderbayes... is there anything I need to configure in SpamBayes? Hm.
