i am using 3.04 on Debian 3

dpkg -l |grep spam
ii  mailscanner    4.41.3-2       email virus scanner and spam tagger
ii  spamassassin   3.0.4-2        Perl-based spam filter using text analysis
ii  spamc          3.0.4-2        Client for SpamAssassin spam filtering 
daemo

i will get the tarball and get the .pre files from it then?

I like to use the apt-get as it makes it easy to maintain a bunch of 
servers...
