I thought of the top-level "windows" directory being a kind of "helper", but
not containing complete applications. Eg, pop3proxy_service just hooks on
the back of pop3proxy, but I don't think it makes sense to have in the
top-level directory. Things like the installer script etc also make sense
here.
The outlook plugin is a large, stand-alone application, and IMO should be in
its own directory. I don't really mind if this was moved to *under* the
windows directory, but I see no real need.
I'd still much rather see the top-level directory cleaned up even more, with
pop3proxy and hammie getting their own, application specific directories.
In this case, pop3proxy_service in the pop3proxy directory makes more sense,
and this "windows" directory could be replaced with one simply for the
installer.
Mark.
