I have two boxes running spamassassin. One Linux, one windows 2000.  The
first setup I had was the windows 2000 box.  I used the tutorial from:
http://www.exit0.us/index.php/SA%20using%20CYGWIN (watch for line
wraps). The only downside to using windows is you loose all the add-ons
(razor, DCC, etc...) but the core of Spamassassin works, also with this
setup, SpamD/C work.  In my experience SpamD/C works better than
Spamassassin (the standalone part) due to reading the configs and rules
at each run.  There is a windows exe that acts like SpamC (on the source
forge site) search for "WinSpamC". Not being too sure the way you want
to set it up, I don't use exchange so YMMV.

Thanks,

That's my whole emphasis right now.  I have an old machine with
FC1/Spamassassin/Procmail doing spam filtering for a small number of
Windows users, mostly remote.  Works great, except that I am having
trouble getting Bayes going.  ;-)
