That's actually part of the problem. I've had a hard time finding anything I
can read except the readme's and the perldoc.

If you can point me at some good URL's for reading I'll gladly do that.

Checked out spamassassin before. It doesn't really explain the roles of
spamc or spamd or how they relate. Perhaps a good candidate for a future
whitepaper?

Yep, it does that.

OK, so by calling spamc does it call the running spamd in the background?
Can someone explain the relationship of them or point me in a direction of
good reading.
