Do I understand you correctly that, if somebody runs a
spamassassin-instance, this instance is doing reports to a central
network which distributes the information to any other spamassassin

I thought there's only an automatic oneway connection with the use of
RBLs and rule-updates.
Is the contribution when using razor/pyzor optional?
How does the contribution to razor/pyzor and dcc work? How is decided
which mail leads to an information transfer to the main systems?
There are certainly many automatic two way communication systems.
I know one nice system that uses HAM and SPAM folders to autolearn
bayesian tokens and then uses that database to seed other bayesian
databases.
How each works and the logic for how they work is quite complicated.
Additionally, because spamassassin is both a program and an API, there
are a lot of different ways to achieve the same effect.
For example, some use the API calls and report spam that way for a
centralized Blacklist. RPBL works that way.
