When you read the ebuild, you'll see that it enables the 'homedir'
configure flag ('--enable-homedir').
>From the dspam source's README:
=========
--enable-homedir
When enabled, instead of checking for $HOME/$USER/opt-in/
$USER[.dspam|.nodspam], DSPAM will check for a .dspam|.nodspam file in
the user's home directory. DSPAM will also store each user's data in
~/.dspam when this option is enabled. Because of this, DSPAM will
automatically install and run setuid root so that it can read each
user's home directory.
Note:
This function is incompatible with most implementations of the Web UI,
since it requires access to read each user's home directory. Therefore,
only use this option if you will not be using the Web UI or plan on
doing something asinine like running it as root.
==========
This has no effect on how the data for users is separated, but only
where config files for users are located. Due to the fact that the files
are in a location which is (probably) not reachable for the
web-interface in this configuration, it is disabled.
