You don't say you have installed SpamAssassin.
         perl -MCPAN -e shell
         install Mail::SpamAssassin
         quit
         service MailScanner restart

Otherwise, if you have installed it, check your maillog for any errors. But
otherwise, that's all you need to do. There are extra things you can do to
improve its spam detection rate, but that is all you need to get started.
