Hi,

i installed Spamassassin on GNU/Linux at the weekend and i am VERY
impressed. It works great.

I tried to install it on Windows but this failed due several reasons.

* There are several getpwuid which are not available on Windows NT

I found that they could be substituted by

;; SpamAssassin.pm line 647: return (getpwuid($>))[7];
;; ==> my $home = eval { (getpwuid($>))[7] } || $ENV{'HOME'};
;; lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/NoMailAudit.pm line 305
;; $file ||= $ENV{'MAIL'} || "/var/spool/mail/".getpwuid($>);
;; => $file ||= $ENV{'MAIL'} || "/var/spool/mail/".$ENV{'USERNAME'};

* A test revealed this:

c:\home\cc\bin\spamassassin>perl spamassassin.raw -L cc < sample-spam.txt

,----

`----

At least the message was spit out on the console after this and
marked as spam!!

Best regards,
Christoph Conrad
