"Welcome to SpamSieve" Dialog After Clean Install

i’am experiencing similar problems.
After a clean Lion-Install on my macbook i installed SpamSieve.

On StartUp of Mail, SpamSieve is starting too.
But it always presents its first “using spamsieve” advise.

Even when i quit Mail and start again, i always get these settings…

I moved this to a separate thread because it doesn’t seem similar to what aselder was observing. The dialog says something like:

SpamSieve will stop showing this window when you’ve successfully begun training it with spam and good messages.

Have you trained it with both spam and good messages?

Is it possible to just turn the damn thing off without having to do anything? It’s reallly annoying and I don’t really care too much about the initial training

It will automatically turn off after training or receiving one good message and one spam message. So in normal use this should happen right away, unless you don’t actually have filtering enabled.
