Yes - I've done this using GenericSpamScanner.pm

package MailScanner::CustomConfig;
use Mail::SpamAssassin::Client;

sub GenericSpamScanner {
   my($ip, $from, $to, $message) = @_;

   # Create spamd connection
   my $spamd =  new Mail::SpamAssassin::Client({port => 783, host => 
'127.0.0.1', user => 'mailscanner'});
   if(!$spamd) {
    MailScanner::Log::WarnLog("Unable to connect to spamd!");
    return(0,"Unable to connect to spamd");
   }

   my($mess) = join('',@$message);

   # Process message
   MailScanner::Log::InfoLog("Calling spamd....");
   my($result) = $spamd->process($mess);
   MailScanner::Log::InfoLog("Got score %s from spamd",$result->{score});
   return($result->{score}, $result->{score});
}

I couldn't find any difference in speed to using the native Perl calls, 
however this way allows you to be creative with what user is sent to 
spamd to allow per-user/per-domain rules scores and bayes databases.

The only thing I haven't been able to do is to actually return a decent 
Spam Report back to MailScanner.

Cheers,
Steve.
