If you want to use something else than win32, then you will have to
change the default configclass value in the bbwin.cfg file.

Can you check the output of the command "dir "C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool"

The output has to be very clean like this :
dir "C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool"
C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool\mail1
C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool\mail2
C:\CFusionMX\Mail\Spool\mail3

If you get something like this :
C:\Program Files\BBWin\tmp>dir
 Volume in drive C is MainDisk
 Volume Serial Number is XXXX-XXXXX

 Directory of C:\Program Files\BBWin\tmp

20/02/2008  19:15    <DIR>          .
20/02/2008  19:15    <DIR>          ..
20/02/2008  17:15             6 736 bbwin.cfg.work
20/02/2008  19:14             1 367 clientlocal.cfg
20/02/2008  19:15               274 logfetch.status
20/02/2008  19:14           208 287 msg.winxp.txt
               4 File(s)        216 664 bytes
               2 Dir(s)   8 418 668 544 bytes free

C:\Program Files\BBWin\tmp>

then it won't work.

You shall need to use something else than the dir command. You may
write a small perl or vbscript which is more powerful than the dos
commands.

Best regards,
