What I've done to use SA with qmail is to put in the .qmail file
something like:
|/usr/local/bin/spamassassin.sh
Where spamassassin.sh is shell script which calls spamc and then checks to
see if the message was tagged as spam. If so is calls something like
this to bounce the message:
if [[ $message_score -ge $spam_limit ]]; then
exec bouncesaying "Your Email was Rejected by out SPAM filters."
fi
Otherwise it delivers the message using the "maildir" command and exits
with a return value of 0. If you'd like I can post my script. It also
does a bunch of other things like pull the spam_limit from a SQL database,
and also handle the forwarding of email to a remote address.
