Not necessarily, they would tend to want a drool-proof interface
though. There are other projects (spambayes) that are simpler to run
on windows.

I'm not suggesting that bogofilter jumps on the windows bandwagon, but
I've come to depend upon bogofilter's classifications at home and it'd
be handy to use them at work.

Ultimately bogofilter is very good at what it does. I think its one of
those tools that you have to understand well  to use, especially as
you can use it to automatically file away email which you may (if
bogofilter is not well trained) want to keep.  So if you can install
bogofilter & work it into your mail routing then you should understand
it.
