 I think maybe this will help:

 I haven't used it myself local to a single account yet, but I have a user
at work who requested it before we started using it company-wide and got
it running lickety split. I think I just had to install the
Mail::SpamAssassin perl module from CPAN for him. (I can't recall what his
procmail recipe was for it though, let me know and I can dig it up if
necessary.)
