I think you may be confusing the OpenBSD spamd(8) program described at
that URL with the program that comes with the spamassassin
content-filtering system. They are two distinct and quite different
programs, but it's more than possible for them to co-exist (even on the
same machine if needed, they install to different paths) and they
complement each other quite well in such setups.

Yes, it is kind of unfortunate that two very different programs come
with a binary with the same name, and it has lead to exactly that kind
of confusion at times.

If you're already using spamassassin, that's fine. If you put the
OpenBSD spamd in default greylisting mode in front of spamassassin or
other content filtering, the load on your content filtering will almost
certainly go down significantly.
