I would totaly agree on Solars approach, to install SpamAssassin under a
local user-account. But nevertheless, I've build some packaged for my
own projects and i would like to share these RPMS.
You'l find them under:

ftp://guest:guest@private/pub/Owl/contrib/RPMS/

YAOR - Yet Another Owl Repository!?!
Doesn't really make sense ... so I will disconnect this server sooner or
later. Usefull packages should be contributed on the offical Owl
mirrors.
