Spamassasin is quite a lot of work, i have not yet encountered a
complete na dfailsafe  howto for the 550, altough i am planning on doing
one in addition to my 550-mailscanner howto sometime. There are several
commercial packages with include both mailscanner and spamassin in one
go, so if you dont want to wait and have a few dollars to spare there
are options.
