   Install procmail.  Configure postfix to use procmail as a local 
delivery agent.  Then put something like this in ~/.procmailrc:

:0fw: spamassassin.lock
| /usr/local/bin/spamc

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$MAILDIR/spam

   NOTE WELL that this assumes spamassassin running in daemon mode.  
This is trivial to set up (just run spamd from your boot scripts) and 
is far, far more efficient than running it per-delivery.
