[vexim] vexim + SA + DSPAM

I have a shiny new installation of vexim. Works like a charm. Now I'm
trying to get similar functionality as with my 'real' accounts. I
handle spam in the following way:
After the usual checks, mail passes through SA. SA simply tags it as
spam in the headers; it doesn't modify the subject or anything else.
The message is then passed through dspam. Dspam examines the headers as
well. It uses the SA results and tags the message as [SPAM] in the
subject along with adding its own results in the headers.
Lastly, exim, through the .forward filter, sorts the mail into the Junk
folder.
It sounds complicated but it works; and it accurately handles perhaps
99.7% of spam, with only one false positive in the last 6 months.
I found this ( you have to scroll down to the vexim/dspam discusison)
but the vexim archives seem to be down:

How do I go about setting up a system like I have with vexim?
