How do I use SpamAssassin (along with any other necessary mail

my mail spool directory.
I've looked in FAQ after FAQ, site after site, book after book, and
the closest thing to an answer that I've found is the chapter in
O'Reilly's SpamAssassin book where it says you can use the
SpamAssassin score to allow MIMEDefang (or other Milter) to bounce
spam during the SMTP transaction but doesn't specify how.
Any pointers, links, or info greatly appreciated. BTW I use
Sendmail as my MTA.

There is a section for sendmail. The Install documentation for the
milter usually explains how to get it to reject spam.
