Obviously you ahvent begun testing yet. But what do you hope for from 64
bit ?

Will this take the whole anti spam war to a tougher level, eg will
spammer be developing more complex ways to beat MS - therefore it is
essential that move toward 64bit?

Love to hear what you think this will mean for mailscanner and anti spam
(if you have time).
