Which version of James are you using? James beta 4 is the listed version on the 
web site but beta 5 is available and has a bunch of changes from beta 4.

I am using beta 5 and the configuration for mailets is in 
./conf/mailetcontainer.xml.

The available documentation can be found here:

http://james.apache.org/mailet/standard/mailet-report.html


Just an additional thought I would also check whether your server is configured 
to comply with RFC standards for spam prevention:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-spam_techniques#Enforcing_RFC_standards
HELO/EHLO checking, greeting delay, and greylisting are a good base of measures 
to employ as many spambot programs can’t cope with them. If you already have 
those measures set up and are still getting lots of spam, maybe it’s time to 
configure Spamassassin. 

James beta 5 has a Spamassassin handler. I don’t know about beta4.
