It works like a charm for me; however, I dont receieve digests:

Unless you split up the digest with e.g formail (called from your
procmailrc), it (the digest) is _one_ message. Spamassassin (SA) assigns points based on
what it finds in the message. When SA reaches 5, the message "becomes"
spam. As the digest is one _long_ message, it'll be full of spam-triggers for SA.

Sure, just put a recipe like
:0:
* ^Sender: owner-freebsd-questions-digest@FreeBSD\.ORG (whatever it is..)
fbsd-q-digest

*before* your call to SA.

Mind you, if you choose to split the digest up, then you should be able
to keep your call to SA as your first recipe.
