[Mitch] I totally agree - except that to do that they have to install cygwin on windows, etc... I think that's what would have started this whole thing - still could be usable that way, though when everything is wrapped in cygwin calls and service emulators (to encapsulate daemon functionality) things can get ugly... he probably started thinking he was simplifying those problems without realizing the size of the ensuing discussion that would follow. Realizing and acknowledging that clam was written focusing on unix in general, mail scanners in particular, I wonder if the clam team would be interested in accepting windows ports of the code... assuming it's doable, and I'm not volunteering. It would just open the product to an even wider audience... of course maybe that's not desirable yet ;-) (considering mirror server loads etc.!) m/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
