Win7 and Outlook 2010 64-bit

According the posts I've seen in recent months, there's no sign that
anyone has gotten SpamBayes to work with Outlook 2010 64-bit, so I'm
giving it a try.

 

Here's what I've tried:

 

1.       Install 64-bit Python (http://www.python.org/download/)

a.       Python 2.6.5 Windows X86-64 installer

2.       Install Distribute (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute)

3.       Install 64-bit pywin32 (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/)

a.       pywin32-214.win-amd64-py2.6.exe

4.       Installed Spambayes from source

a.       Download 1.1a6 source

b.      Extracted to C:\spambayes-1.1a6

c.       python setup.py install

d.      It apparently installed to C:\Program
Files\Python26\Lib\site-packages\spambayes-1.1a6-py2.6.egg

5.       permissions to write in spambayes Program Files folder

a.       cd \Program
Files\Python26\Lib\site-packages\spambayes-1.1a6-py2.6.egg

b.      icacls spambayes /grant users:F /T

6.       Install Outlook add-in

a.       Cd \spambayes-1.1a6\Outlook2000

b.      Python addin.py

Everything appears to have executed successfully, but when I start
Outlook and view the COM add-ins, SpamBayes is disabled.  It says "Not
loaded.  A runtime error occurred during the loading of the COM Add-in."

 

 

 

I've looked for more details on the error in several places:

 

1.       C:\Users\greg\AppData\Roaming\SpamBayes

2.       C:\Users\greg\AppData\Local\SpamBayes

3.       NT Event Log

4.       Python Trace Collector in PythonWIn

 

I was really hopeful that useful troubleshooting info would appear in
PythonWin, but nothing, which makes me think Outlook is probably failing
to load the Add-in at all.  Any suggestions on what I can try from here?

 

Thanks,

Greg
