Also, I forgot one thing: It's not a plugin for dspam, it's a plugin for dovecot that links dspam to dovecot.
I know :)

It seemed you were a bit confused when you asked if it would be included with dspam. FWIW, I'm using it with dspam 3.6.8 from debian. But I have a per-user setup, if you want a virtual user setup you probably need to do a bit more work since the plugin will actually need to call the dspam binary with a --user argument which requires a plugin modification.
I know that some people have done this modification, but I haven't received any patches. If you get it to work a patch would be welcome.

Basically my primary objective is to prevent spam and today i got an interesting link to it: http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/tip/0%2C289483%2Csid39_gci123577...
and http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/sysadmin/2005/09/15/qpsmtpd.html
I think this method is more reliable since I am playing with a production server.
I will surely try to contribute to dovecot, but there is a long way to go ...

I've had several setups for SPAM/Virus handling in qmail servers,and the best solution so far was a combination of simscan + dspam + clamav. All the other qmail-queue replacements i've tried, including qpsmtpd, where just too expensive regarding system resources. Most solutions involving perl will simply not do, at least for me, on account of perl overhead.
Right now i have several production environments, one of which israther large, and i've been rather happy with the implementation outcome. That setup includes qmail-ldap with some patches for greylisting and greeting delay, simscan with a patch to handle dspam internal quarantine engine, dspam with a patch to allow user checking/address alias mapping, clamav, maildrop for server side filtering and finally dovecot with Johannes dspam plugin.
Besides the regular locations for all that software, you mightconsider taking a look at the set of patches i mentioned. The link is http://pessoa.fct.unl.pt/hmmm/files/anti-spam/
