I use qmail-scanner, because it gives you the option of virus scanning as well, but there are probably more efficient/elegant ways of doing this now. In short, you'll want to install in this order:
qmail (Maildir) maildrop (or a procmail that understands Maildir) qmail-queue patch (see qmail-scanner page for link) Spamassassin qmail-scanner.pl (be sure spamd is actually running before installing this, so it sees it during configure) Then you'll need to figure out a strategy on how to deal with the spam itself. Bouncing it is no longer a viable option. I divert it to a .Spam folder in each user's Maildir which they can access via sqwebmail to check for false positives, then have a modified version of a script somebody posted here a while ago that runs every night to delete all messages in the .Spam folders older than 5 days. To keep your outgoing queue a sane size, you'll also want to make sure that the .qmail-default for your domain has something like this: |condredirect [EMAIL PROTECTED] grep "X-Spam-Status: Yes" |bouncesaying "Sorry, that user does not exist" where [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a .qmail file with a comment (#) in it.
