My brother is the techy guy for a small business, and he was recently trying to modify Postfix to talk to spamc/spamd. He got into a bind, and IM'ed me. The conversation went something like:
Me: so what did you change?
Him: I put stuff in from {mumble web page}, but I took it back out.
Me: So, you're back to the original working configs?
Him: I think so.
Me: think? What does RCS say?
Him: that I'm an idiot for not using it?
Heh.

Yeah, I'm the idiot brother.:D
A few changes to the Postfix config files and I was hosed. Had to evntually uninstall Postfix, delete all the config dirs and reinstall it to get back to square one. Took a quick lesson on how to use RCS and saved the working setup before adding Spamassassin to Postfix.
I did the quick and dirty config located at http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/IntegratedSpamdInPostfix
That config works providing spamd doesn't die on you, which will cause all the email to bounce.:P Re:Me too!

Where was that information a year ago when I needed it? That is pretty much how I ended up doing it.
