NAME

       sb_server - The primary server for SpamBayes.

DESCRIPTION

       Currently serves the web interface, and any configured POP3 and SMTP proxies.

       The  POP3  proxy  works  with  classifier.py, and adds a simple X-Spambayes-Classification
       header (ham/spam/unsure) to each incoming email.  You point the proxy at your POP3 server,
       and  configure  your  email client to collect mail from the proxy then filter on the added
       header.  Usage:

              sb_server.py [options] [<server> [<server port>]]

              <server> is the name of your real POP3 server <port>   is the port number  of  your
              real POP3 server, which

              defaults to 110.

              options:

       -h     : Displays this help message.

              -d  FILE  : use the named DBM database file -p FILE : the the named Pickle database
              file -l port : proxy listens on this port number  (default  110)  -u  port  :  User
              interface listens on this port number

              (default 8880; Browse http://localhost:8880/)

       -b     : Launch a web browser showing the user interface.

              -o section:option:value :

              set [section, option] in the options database to value

              All  command  line  arguments  and  switches  take  their  default  values from the
              [pop3proxy] and [html_ui] sections of bayescustomize.ini.

       For safety, and to  help  debugging,  the  whole  POP3  conversation  is  written  out  to
       _pop3proxy.log for each run, if options["globals", "verbose"] is True.

       To   make   rebuilding   the   database   easier,   uploaded   messages  are  appended  to
       _pop3proxyham.mbox and _pop3proxyspam.mbox.
