Here's the recommended syntax:

    :0fw
    |/usr/local/bin/spamc -U /var/run/spamd.sock

spamd should be launched thusly:

    spamd -d --socketpath=/var/run/spamd.sock --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid

Put the following in your /etc/crontab (all one line, in case your
client wraps it):

    @reboot    root    /usr/local/bin/spamd --daemonize
--socketpath=/var/run/spamd.sock --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid

Others may have different preferences; this is a minimalist's (me)
installation.
