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

srvman and srvany are both wrappers, they do the same thing.  The
only difference is in who wrote them.  There are a lot of small tools
like that floating around.  Just be aware that sometimes the
security updates will break them.  I'd still like to find an update
for Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel for Windows XP.  Microsoft busted that
one about 3-4 months ago with a security update and the others that
are out there are big and piggy.
