"Are you running Spamdyke?"

No I don't believe so, but I can look into installing it.

"SpamAssassin logs to /var/log/qmail/spamd."

Yeah I know about that log, but that only shows you that it's running, has
pids and children, etc.  It doesn't actually give me any type of "I blocked
this email because of X" kind of logging.

I just checked out /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf and it is already set to
these settings:

ok_locales all
skip_rbl_checks 1

required_score 5
report_safe 0
rewrite_header Subject ***SPAM***

use_pyzor 1

use_auto_whitelist 1

use_bayes 1
use_bayes_rules 1
bayes_auto_learn 1
