I agree that the flat files work well for Junkmail itself. However, a
web GUI will be very hard to do without the 'masters' kept in a
database.
Without a database you'll run into file locking problems and it will be
harder to deal with single records.

This is pretty much a moot point as both IIS and Apache have the same
security risks. IIS just gets more press.
But for the web back-end it's really a moot point because the dependency
is more on the programming language and not the web server.

That's going to be hard. You really only have two choices that could
cover most of the bases.
ASP or PHP both are available in the Win and Unix worlds. Win32 admins
will prefer ASP.
