For spamassassin:
Install the packages spamassassin and razor.
Change the /etc/default/spamassassin ENABLED from 0 to 1:

# Change to one to enable spamd
ENABLED=1

Add this to your .procmailrc:

################
# Spamassassin #
################

# SpamAssassin sample procmailrc
#
# Pipe the mail through spamassassin (replace 'spamassassin' with 'spamc'
# if you use the spamc/spamd combination)
#
# The condition line ensures that only messages smaller than 250 kB
# (250 * 1024 = 256000 bytes) are processed by SpamAssassin. Most spam
# isn't bigger than a few k and working with big messages can bring
# SpamAssassin to its knees.
#
# The lock file ensures that only 1 spamassassin invocation happens
# at 1 time, to keep the load down.
#

:0fw: spamassassin.lock
* < 256000
| spamc

# Mails with a score of 15 or higher are almost certainly spam (with 0.05%
# false positives according to rules/STATISTICS.txt). Let's put them in a
# different mbox. (This one is optional.)

# All mail tagged as spam (eg. with a score higher than the set threshold)
# is moved to "probably-spam".

* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes

# Work around procmail bug: any output on stderr will cause the "F" in "From"
# to be dropped.  This will re-add it.
