I know very little about scalix, but out anti spam solution has been taken up 
by some of the community. I must say that the forum help is both friendly and 
pretty in-depth. There's a manual on how to install our product on there 
somewhere, written by one of their users, totally of their own bat!

I was impressed, knowing the usual level of support for an open source product!
