Actually,  that's  exactly what you DON'T want to do, if you can avoid
it.   SPAMD  is  a  multi-process  (forking)  daemon--a  traditionally
accepted  architecture  on *nix, while Win32 types usually lean toward
multithreading,  with  IMail  an  interesting  hybrid--which  benefits
strongly  from  the  preloading  of  the  Perl and SA modules. Loading
everything   from   scratch   for   every  message,  though  it  works
surprisingly   well  for  Declude  and  many  of  its  plug-ins,  adds
considerable   overhead   relative   to   an   "ideal"   client/server
architecture.  SPAMC  and  SPAMD  are  definitely  headed in the right
design direction; the only thing better would be a native Win32 SPAMD,
which would get rid of the Cygwin layer.
