where it says "required_score=5.0" means that the message being scanned
must have a score of at least 5.0 to be considered spam by spamassassin.
 where it says "clean message (-1.2/5.0)" means that the message being
scanned only got a score of -1.2 out of the required 5.0 so it is NOT
spam, according to your spamassassin setup.  in your
/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf file, you can configure many, many
different things, including the score required to be considered spam.

spamassassin alone, does not block spam or do anything else but identify
and/or tag it as spam.  other programs in conjunction with spamassassin
(such as procmail or cyrus's sieve) can do things with (like trash or
move to a special folder) the message that spamassassin has identified
as spam.

see "man spamassassin" or "perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf" for
configuration information.

you really should check out the spamassassin mailing lists as they would
be a better place to get info:
