I'm not using it myself, only tried it briefly back in 2004.

Search RELEASE_NOTES for:
- provisional/experimental support for DSPAM spam checker (pre 3.0):
  if configuration variable $dspam is nonempty and represents ...

Instead of two rules described there, you can use a SA plugin
for DSPAM:
  http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/CustomPlugins

Other that that I cannot provide further advice on DSPAM.
Btw, the project had its ups and downs, consider now the
dspam-community project:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSPAM

I'd be much happier if the ad-hoc support were removed from
amavisd and moved to where it belongs: to a SpamAssassin plugin.
The current DSPAM plugin only works in conjunction with header
fields from DSPAM as inserted into a mail header by amavisd.
It should be extended to be able to call DSPAM by itself,
along with auto-learning possibilities, along the lines of
a CRM114 plugin for SA.

Incidentally, lately I've been playing with the CRM114 plugin
for SpamAssassin by Martin Schütte:
  http://mschuette.name/wp/crm114-spamassassin-plugin/
along with CRM114 version 20081111-BlameBarack.

and I must admit that the CRM114 works exceptionally well,
after only a few days of auto-learning. I made several
modifications to the plugin (I sent them to the author),
but even as it is, it works well.
