Arrg:

I have been struggling with this all yesterday evening.  Two minutes 
after posting this I realise it is /usr/sbin/sendmail, not /usr/bin/sendmail

Sorry for the noise  (Although I would prefer to use the dspam backend 
if I could).

It is not working yet - postfix has rejected the mail because it came 
from an unknown sender (dspam at chandlerfamily.org.uk) I could use %u on 
the sender address - but then my sieve script to save outgoing mail 
would have to change to ignore mail aimed at the spam addresses.
