You could do what I've been doing for a while now, just add

transport_filter = /usr/bin/spamc

to your "local_delivery". Each mail will be passed through
SpamAssassin, and tagged, as it is delivered. This has the added
benefit of allowing spamc to be run as the user receiving the mail. So
each user can have their own prefs. The only drawback is the
transport_filter is run so late in the delivery that no filtering by
Exim can be done.
