Ouch! Seems the old Faq-o-matic is off-line... Whether by design or
accident, I don't know (has happened before, then it was by accident).
It has, unfortunately, proved to be a bigger chore than expected to
move it all into the wiki... Mostly because one wants to ...
improve/rewrite/tidy up, as one goes along. And some things, I (and
obviously others too:-) simplky can't write about (since we lack the
specific knowledge... Simply don't use everything under the Sun;-).
Someone should perhaps prod Jules about the faq-o-matic...

Meanwhile, go look at
http://wiki.mailscanner.info/doku.php?id=documentation:anti_spam:spamassassin:plugins:dcc:dccifd_install
which seem to contain everything you need:-). Seems someone (who has a
bit of free time:-) should go through the wiki and do some link sanity
checks:-D
