You might be missing the documentation.

All kidding aside. you'll need to look thru the
/etc/mail/mimedefang-filter file to see how you have it configured to
call SpamAssassin.

by default I don't think it even writes anything to the syslog unless a
message scores above a certain score. You should put some debugging
calls in to confirm that it's working and then remove them once you're
comfortable with it.

the mimedefang documentation is your friend.
