Indeed it would. Now, imagine for a second that we have two versions of libspam: The first would be a library version of spamc. Upon sending a message to it, the library would send the message to spamd and get a response back. The second version would be the 100% C version, except in a library format. So, at the user's option, the spamc-clone library could be installed to take advantage of easy rule changes (using the spamd Perl program) or the 100% C version could be used for speed purposes. Finally, if we defined a solid, stable API from day 1, other spam-scanning programs could offer compatibility. That kind of generic architecture would make it much easier to get the code into the main distribution of mainstream MTAs. A simple configure option of --with-libspam would be all that would be needed. As for the API, I'm thinking the following entry points would be essential (the names are not intended to be used verbatim): scan_message(char *s); // scan the message scan_message_locally(char *s); // scan the message w/o network report_message(char *s); // report the message as spam remove_markup(char *s); This is just food for thought. Enjoy!
