Wow, the messages look like rocket science : ) Jerry, I'm happy that it helped. I think JAM version of spamd (3.3.1) cannot work if you don't change the working directory, so I invented that .bat file. I mean if you set the line spamd.exe -D --syslog="spamd.log" --max-spare=6 in srvman, the service won't start because of error.
Bear in mind you have to kill spamd.exe when you need to stop the service. restart-spamassassin.bat may look like this: NET STOP Spamassassin TASKKILL /F /IM:spamd.exe NET START Spamassassin -if you named the service as Spamassasin- In Windows port, spamd becomes non-responsive regularly. You have to monitor that service. In my Windows box, revocer log is below & gives you an idea about stability of spamd 30.07.2010, 20:55:13, RESTARTED 31.07.2010, 21:15:13, RESTARTED 01.08.2010, 21:15:13, RESTARTED 02.08.2010, 22:35:16, RESTARTED 03.08.2010, 22:10:14, RESTARTED 05.08.2010, 0:15:11, RESTARTED 05.08.2010, 13:05:51, RESTARTED 05.08.2010, 16:35:13, RESTARTED 06.08.2010, 14:30:13, RESTARTED 07.08.2010, 14:15:13, RESTARTED 08.08.2010, 13:55:14, RESTARTED 09.08.2010, 14:00:13, RESTARTED 09.08.2010, 14:55:13, RESTARTED 10.08.2010, 14:50:15, RESTARTED 11.08.2010, 14:25:15, RESTARTED 12.08.2010, 14:50:14, RESTARTED 14.08.2010, 19:35:13, RESTARTED 15.08.2010, 19:35:13, RESTARTED 16.08.2010, 20:10:13, RESTARTED 17.08.2010, 19:55:12, RESTARTED If you need the monitoring script I'll post, too.
