Re: SpamBayes 1.1a6 not working since upgrade Debian Lenny -> Squeeze (with Python 2.6.6)

I don't use procmail, so my error messages were different, but I was not 
able to make the latest Debian 2.6.* work with 1.1a6.  When I was using 
Squeeze, I had to run against python 2.5 to make 1.1a6 work.

That trick no longer works in Wheezy, but I have had success with Skip's 
latest 1.1b1 found at 
http://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=spambayes 
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=spambayes> testing 
against python 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7.

The 1st thread is the Squeeze thread and the 2nd is the Wheezy thread.
