Installation on Windows 32 bit. 

1). Download and install the latest version of Active Perl which currently is Version 5.10.0.1004: http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads/. As you move through the installation wizard, make sure the option "Add Perl to the Path environment variable" is selected.


2). Download the Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy (ASSP) distributable and copy the ASSP folder and all contents within the zip files ASSP directory to the root of your C:\ drive. You will have C:\ASSP.

OR

Create the following directory: 
c:\assp 
then copy all of the files and directories under the ASSP folder within the zip file to C:\assp.


3). Download "assp.mod.zip" from
http://www.magicvillage.de/~Fritz_Borgs ... ?WasRead=1
and unzip the folder asp.mod into the c:/assp base directory.


4). Open a Windows command line, Run > cmd.exe and change directory to c:/assp/assp.mod/install 

If you are running a default installation and are not using an Internet Proxy, enter
perl mod_inst.pl

If you have to use an Internet Proxy OR you have not done a default installation, then
A). Edit the install.cmd file
B). Edit the blank line if the location of your ASSP installation is not default! I.E. set ASSPDIR=D:\assp
C). Please set your Proxy, if you need it.
D). Save the file install.cmd
E). Run 'install.cmd'


5). Open a Windows command line, Run > cmd.exe and change directory to c:/assp. Edit the assp.cfg file with notepad or your favorite text editor. Search for: 
webAdminPassword
Ensure this is set as follows: 
webAdminPassword:=nospam4me
Save the file.


TESTING

Open a Windows command line, Run > cmd.exe and change directory to C:\ASSP and enter 
perl assp.pl

Your command window should have some stuff appear and now you can open you favorite web browser and enter http://127.0.0.1:55555. A login window will appear. There is no user, just a password and that is nospam4me or whatever you set in step 5 above.

Surf around. You may find some URLS and other passwords that are not needed and you can simply change them to default values for now.

If you are going to install as a service, close the running assp command window.

INSTALL AS A WINDOWS SERVICE

A). Open a Windows command line, Run > cmd.exe and change directory to C:\ASSP.
B). Enter perl assp.pl c:\assp i
C). After it is installed, start the service: Right click My Computer > Manage. Double click Services and Applications. Double click Services. Right click Anti Spam SMTP Proxy and click start. The service should already be set to automatic. So a computer reboot will start the ASSP service.
D). Open your web browser and again go to http://127.0.0.1:55555 and under Server Setup make certain that Run ASSP as a Windows Service (asService) is checked.
