Added my comments to yours below. It cannot find rcspamd and spamd does not
show up in Yast2 run level editor. It also does not show up in the software
even after running SuSEconfig.

It is actually that easy. Yet the problem is the README files are
written as Not_To_Be_Understood

Configuration files
1)/etc/sysconfig/spamd you should leave this as it is

This file is not there.


# The arguments passed to spamd.
# See spamd(1) man page and README.spamd
# Please take care of security considerations!
# Default is "-d -c -a"
SPAMD_ARGS="-d -c -a"



2) /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
This one defines the behavior of spamassassin if it will mark the
Subject with ***********SPAM**************** and etc. You can normally
override this with the user configuration located at $HOME

3) $HOME/.spamassassin/user_prefs

This is where you can define the user prefs ie. scoring or whitelists

score PORN_10 4

4) $HOME/.procmailrc edit so that it calls the following before sorting out
mails in to mailboxes. I use a mailbox called "spam" where I can review
them from time to time to make sure no legitimate mail is discarded.

:0fw
|/usr/bin/spamc

:0e
{
EXITCODE=$?
}

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
spam # Name of your SPAM review mailbox

5) Using YaST2 configure spamd so it will start with the system boot or
using command line interface

"chkconfig spamd" which will tell you if spamd is running

a) make sure it starts as you want it

chkconfig --list spamd
spamd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off

All of these are off

b) If it does not look like above
chkconfig spamd 35

rcspamd: command not found

c) Make sure it is running also
rcspamd status

rcspamd: command not found

Checking for service spamd running

d) If it does not rcspamd start

rcspamd: command not found.
