John,

I am setting up the same thing at the moment actually. I haven't fully
released it to our customer base, but I am testing it and it is working
fine. Any comments from others would be great though.

I've installed Procmail v3.22 and SpamAssassin 2.20. I am running spamd
with the flags -d (daemon) and -c (create user prefs files). I am running
it as the user root. I've looked into mysql, but the docs said it is still
Beta and could change at any time. I've had good luck so far with files in
the users home directory anyways. It just makes it harder for the end user
to customize.

In my main.cf for postfix, I have:
mailbox_command = /usr/local/bin/procmail

This calls procmail, which then reads a system-wide rcfile I have
installed in /usr/local/etc/procmailrc which consists of:

:0fw
| /usr/bin/spamc

This seems to work great. I also don't suffer from the issues I've read
here about postfix and people having problems with required hits being
wrong when sending to more than one recipient.

I made local customizations to /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf to change
the default required hits for all of my users, which they can override
with the user_prefs file in their .spamassassin directory.

HTH!
-Steve
