    Note For First Time Users
    --------------------------
    Per default spamprobe uses the directory ~/.spamprobe to store
    its database when no directory is specified with the -d option.
    IT DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY CREATE DIRECTORIES when they don't
    exist.   Either you create the directory where you want the
    database to reside with mkdir before invoking spamprobe or
    use spamprobe's -c command line flag.


    Upgrading Notes
    ---------------

    Since version 1.4d-12.1, this package uses Berkeley DB 5.3. Previous
    versions of this package used Berkeley DB version 5.1 or prior
    databases for storing state.

    This change results in spamprobe choking when trying to modify
    old databases (cf. Bug #440939).  Section DATABASE MAINTENANCE
    in the spamprobe(1) manual page outlines a manual upgrade path.

    Spamprobe allows each user to use own spamprobe databases, making
    a fully automatic upgrade path infeasibly, again I apologize.

    To avoid this issue at next Berkeley DB migration, converting to
    another data file format, like 'hash', is recommended.  See
    documentation of the -d option in spamprobe(1) man page.


    Configure Options Used
    ----------------------

    When building the package, spamprobe was configured with these
    specific options:

      default-8bit - Use 8bit characters by default
      cdb          - Concurrent Berkeley DB access
      gif          - Processing of gif images
      png          - Processing of png images
      jpeg         - Processing of jpeg images

    Should you experience problems with the latter option, please file
    a bug report using a tool like reportbug.


    Manual Page
    -----------

    Upstream's manual page spamprobe(1) is sort of reformating the
    README coming with the tarball, including marketing blurb, build
    and installation instructions, effectively making it annoying to
    use for reference.  Debian provides a docbook-xml based version
    compiled from the original by Siggy Brentrup (previous maintainer
    of this Debian package).
