Where are the spamd logs stored?

It shows this every time it processes mail:

Mar 19 11:56:08 bacon spamd[22447]: connection from localhost [ 127.0.0.1 ] at 
port 45093
Mar 19 11:56:08 bacon spamd[23808]: Creating default_prefs 
[/root/.spamassassin/user_prefs]
Mar 19 11:56:08 bacon spamd[23808]: Couldn't create readable default_prefs for 
[/root/.spamassassin/user_prefs]
