Yes this is the one I used and it was very useful but I had to dig for some specific stuff like the site.config.m4 stuff so that libmilter is implemented correctly. Also if you are on Solaris and want hash DB files you need to stuff some more stuff in site.config.m4. You also have to change the sendmail makefile so that libmilter is actually compiled. Spamassassin requires a number of perl modules not listed here also I found you need perl 5.8 at least and those of us on Solaris also need to install gcc 3 and above works fine I think I also had to install m4. All these tools (perl/m4/gcc) are normally available on our internal network but this machine resides in our DMZ so had to do these also.
Guess a lot of this is site/OS specific but it did take a lot of google time. But once sorted it works just great and the popcorn etc etc stuff was/is fab. Just have to convince our other 2 sites to implement it so that all our SMTP gateways are covered which means writing a how-to (very site specific though). We also use this as a gateway into exchange 2000.
