My spammed.log file is empty:

Yes (sometimes auto-spelling correcting sucks)

OK, so newsyslog(8) is working as expected.
$ psa spam

As documented in the spamd(1) man page:
-s facility, --syslog=facility Specify the syslog facility
So, specifly a syslog FACILITY instead of a FILENAME. See syslogd
(8) and
syslog.conf(5) man pages for more.
So setting the -s to 'local1' and then setting syslog.conf to log
local1.* to /var/log/spamd.log?

OK, just waiting for a spam to come in and get past the RBL/HELO
checks. Seems early Sunday morning are the worst time…
