Oops :) Sorry, Julian, now you correct me I remember you saying this
before, unfortunately in the wee hours of this morning my brain simply knew
that MS didn't use spamd, and jumped to the unjustified conclusion that that
meant it must use the command-line version like it does with virus scanners :)
I should have known you'd bypass the inefficient bits and go straight for the
code :)
