If all you want to do is to run spam checks, probably the easiest way to
do it is with a "milter" interface to SA (spamass-milter, miltrassassin).
Your sendmail structure doesn't change, you only need to add the
"INPUT_MAIL_FILTER" line to your config.mc file (after building the
spamd & milter daemons).
See:

Other packages such as MIMEDefang & amavisd have more capabilities
(anti-virus, content filtering, attachment filtering) but use more
resources and effort.
