Down and Dirty Install
wget http://dspam.nuclearelephant.com/sources/dspam-3.X.X.tar.gz
tar -xvzf dspam-3.X.X.tar.gz cd dspam-3.X.X
./configure \ --sysconfdir=/etc/dspam \ --enable-daemon \ --enable-clamav \ --with-storage-driver=mysql_drv \ --with-mysql-libraries=/usr/lib/mysql \ --with-mysql-includes=/usr/include/mysql \ --enable-virtual-users \ --enable-preferences-extension \ --enable-domain-scale \ --enable-debug \ --with-logdir=/var/log/dspam

3. set the sticky bit (SUID) for the dspam executable (/usr/local/bin/dspam)
