It seems a bit  easier than the qmail route (I just read  the other post out
of curiosity).

Basically, your options are:
If you want to/need to run sendmail, there is a milter for it, although from
what I read, it has issues and isn't being actively maintained.
There has to  be a way to do it  with postfix, if you prefer to  run this to
exim (less features, but more secure model)
For  exim, you  have my  patch  (add file  in exim  source tree,  recompile,
install and configure spamassassin.conf, and you're done)

(it's down for a few hours as I type this)
If the fact that qmail isn't open source doesn't bother you, and you don't
mind adding the several patches that you need, that's an option too.

I personally recommend exim since it probably has the most built-in features
of all 4 MTAs, and while monolithic,  it's fairly secure (I'm also hooked on
smtp callbacks, and on the fly virtual alias creation for mailman)
