Hello Holger,

That will depend on the version of DSPAM you are running. If you use 
anything >= 3.9 alpha, such as the packages you refer, which are 
apparently beta1, you can use the ExtLookup* directives. The ones 
allowing you to bind non-anonymously to the LDAP server are provided as 
example in dspam.conf

ExtLookupLogin         "cn=admin,dc=domain,dc=com"     # Login to be 
used when connecting to any direct database backend.
ExtLookupPassword      itsasecret                      # Password to use 
with ExtLookupLogin.

Best regards,

Hugo Monteiro.
