Integrating Postfix with SpamAssassin and dspam is generally fairly easy, and there are a couple of ways to do it. The best documentation I can recommend is available at the Postfix website. You can find a variety of HOWTOs at http://www.postfix.org/docs.html.

Also available are some other links that should help:
