The easiest way would probably be to build a local package from source, using 
the Fedora SRPM.  Under a regular (not root) account, do the following:

# wget 
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/source/tree/Packages/s/spamassassin-3.4.5-1.fc35.src.rpm
rpm --nomd5 -i spamassassin-3.4.5-1.fc35.src.rpm

This should install a spec file into ~/rpmbuild/SPECS, though it may go 
elsewhere (e.g., /usr/src).  You may need to make the rpmbuild directory.

# cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS (or appropriate other directory)

# rpmbuild -ba spamassassin.spec

This should install the compiled RPM into ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/$HOSTTYPE/ -- the 
last few lines of the rpmbuild output will tell you (look for lines beginning 
with Wrote:).

# cd ~/rpmbuild/RPMS (or appropriate other directory)

# sudo yum localinstall spamassassin-3.4.5-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

(If you are on a different architecture than x86_64, adjust the above 
accordingly.)

You may need to install some other dependencies, and for that, the easiest 
would be to install the EPEL 7 repo if you have not already done so.

Hope this helps.

Cheers.
