I am using Debian Wheezy here (therefore, Exim + Dovecot for e-mail),

running it by directly calling spamassassin, or by running spamd and
calling spamc.  Both methods are going to be used via my .procmailrc.

Not directly addressing your other questions but: running spamassassin directly is only really suitable for *very* low-traffic environments, as that will parse and compile all of the rules and other config *per message*, which is a lot of overhead. spamc+spamd is strongly recommended for production use.
