Looked at everything... Basically, both are CygWin. The SpamC you are using is using CygWin.dll to run...
With that setup, you'd find a definite improvement by moving to a linux box to run them both on. F-Prot for Windows needs the "server" switch turned on when scanning (don't remember the "-switch" you need off hand). Then it doesn't need any decoders... it will decode on its own. It understands MIME, UUENCODE, ZIP, attached messages, etc, and even can decode WINMAIL.DAT (Outlook proprietary encoding). If you would like to try a native SpamC... you can use mine (XMail POST-DATA filter - written in VB.NET) or WinSpamC.exe on sourceforge (written in C). Regardless... not criticizing your choices. I think anyone taking the time to come up with some sort of anti-virus/anti-spam system for their mail servers deserves a solid pat on the back. ------------------------------------------------------------ Jason J Ellingson Technical Consultant 615.301.1682 : nashville 612.605.1132 : minneapolis www.ellingson.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shiloh Jennings Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2004 2:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] Re: [****SPAM****] RE: Re: Spam Filters Cygwin for CLamAV and a native Win32 compile of SpamC.

The decoding stuff is actually built into ClamAV, so = we do not need to fuss with an additional decoder that may need its own babysitting and debugging. I am a huge fan of ClamAV at this point. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
