FYI
I and many others use Jam's windows port of Spamassassin. It is exactly the same as the linux version in what it can and cant do. Users can modify with plugins, rules, scoring overrides etc just the same as you do on linux. Spamd, spamc, spamassassin... all the same. The only thing that is different are (obviously) program paths and how you refer to them 9but as a windows user you would come to know that and learn you way around it when reading linux-orientated manuals).

Thanks for the quick response. I'll try to reply with what I know. But I purchased a package "SpamAssassin In A Box" from JAM Software. I ran the installer, and that's it. I'm sorry that I don't know more. But I don't know much about the inner workings. I was just hoping it would work.
Spamassassin doesn't 'just work' *sufficiently* straight after install. You will need to tweak (turn off and turn on) things to make it optimum.
As a purchasers of Jams paid product, you can contact Jam support directly and they will help advise you on what you need to do to "get it working". The have been useful to me and others.
(You will also get more direct help instead of having to endure the constant incessant bickering and sniping and the _"Im right, he's wrong"_ chest-beating that this mailing list tends to to be populated with especially between the users that assume that those who are asking the questions for help because they have a lack of knowledge dont have the right to ask the basic because they are not knowledgable enough.)
