<snip>


I have Postfix 2.016 Running and Spamassassin 2.44 up and running, pretty
peachy.....(neither one complains, and mail runs very well...)  The question
is, it doesn't seem like Spamd/Spamassassin is "DOING" anything.......no
mail is flagged as spam by it that I can tell, and it's a big memory hog if
it's not doing anything......is there anything you have to tell Postfix to
do to use spamd??

You have to tell postfix to send the mail through spamc, which then talks to spamd to filter the mail.
Heres a guide that I used and works for me: (I used version 1.2 though)

If you need help mail me off list and I'll help if I can. I'm not an expert though.
The other way is to use procmail to send the mail to spamc instead of using a filter. There's a bit of info about this on the spamassassin site, but the link above actually tells you how, step by step. I believe that a postfix filter and spamc/spamd is the reccomended way to do site-wide filtering, rather than procmail. Make copies of your postfix config files first!.
