spamd sighup win32

[Daniel Lemke <le...@jam-software.com>]

Hi,
does anybody know how to send a SIGHUP signal to spamd under win32?
I already tried taskkill /IM (regarding to http://thehoneymonster.net/2009/08/kill-and-killall-for-windows/ equivalent to the unix SIGHUP) but the process didn't respond.
taskkill /IM spamd /F kills the process but doesn't generate a log entry like it does when killed by Strg+C (info: spamd: server killed by SIGINT, shutting down).
If Strg+C is able to shut down it properly, there must be a way to do this by console AND also to give it the command to restart for reloading the system-wide config files.

I think you need to signal to the running perl.exe process. Don't know if it 
can trap that signal and do something else than hanging up.
