How can I build SpamAssassin on my local machine?

https://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/SingleUserUnixInstall isn't a bad description, except that it references an old version and is extremely verbose and covers more than you are likely to need.

The simpler version:

svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/trunk
cd trunk
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

You can substitute "trunk" with whichever source branch or tag you are interested in working on. The most relevant ones are 'trunk' (which will be 4.0.0,) 'branches/3.4' (which will ultimately be 3.4.2,) and 'tags/spamassassin_release_3_4_1' (the current release version, which has some bad bugs but is a static reference point if that's what you need...)
