[dspam-users] Init script for RHEL 4

Not sure what others are using but since I didn't see an init script for
dspam in CVS HEAD or the list archives I put together a quick solution.
This works on RHEL 4 and should work on RHEL 3 as well. The start()
function could use some work so suggestions welcome.

Obviously this is most useful when running dspam in daemon mode. Drop it
into /etc/init.d/ and then run: chkconfig --add dspam; chkconfig dspam on;
