As others have explained, just install the port and everything will be taken care of automatically. However, I recommend using bogofilter instead of spamprobe; the latter has VERY high resource demands, and takes a long time to process messages. bogofilter uses similar techniques, but without the resource bloat. Once you get it trained up, it works very well on personal email accounts (it catches over 95% of my spam).
