    Hi Ernie,
      I don't know DSPAM, is it a "milter" like mimedefang and
    spamassassin? I use mimedefang and spamassassin (mimedefang calls
    spamassassin) in a gateway spam filter/virus scanner etc config. In
    my /etc/mail/hostname.mc file I put in
    dnl # icarz customizations here
    INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang',
    `S=local:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock,
    F=T,T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')dnl
    define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `mimedefang')dnl
    dnl Custom rate limits should be OK with 1 gig

    define(`confCONNECTION_RATE_THROTTLE',`10')
    define(`confMAX_DAEMON_CHILDREN', `40' )

    define(`SMART_HOST', `mailhost.icarz.com')

    You can change the mail filter to be any mail filter. The SMART_HOST
    sends everything to my real mail server. My mx records point to this
    host. I am sure there are better configurations, but this was easy.

    I hope this helps you with you question,
    Ken
