[Spamassassin Wiki] Trivial Update of "SocNightlyMassCheck" by DonJones

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Spamassassin Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by DonJones:
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/SocNightlyMassCheck

The comment on the change is:
use NSIS?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   * 1) Implementing this really wouldn't be all that hard because you would use existing components like perl, spamassassin, ssh, and rsync.
   * 2) You would need to tie them all together using some toolkit to make a frontend like gtk  or qt that works in Cygwin.  From the frontend you choose mail client folders to read for HAM and SPAM, and schedule the nightly mass check time.
   * 3) You might need some kind of service or applet visible from the systray in order to do the scheduled nightly mass check.
-  * 4) Use an "InstallShield" type click-thru installer, which seems to be the standard on Windows.  They shouldn't need to make *ANY* choices to download and configure Cygwin.  It should just dump everything needed into a single folder that contains this mass check bundle.

   * 5) The use of existing FOSS components and a cross-platform toolkit like gtk  or qt would allow this to build on Linux too.
