How ? What did you expect to happen and what happened instead ?

If you get "Cannot open load file" errors, then you have to add your
home directory to `load-path' like so:
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~"))

You also have to tell rmail-spam-library what is spam, which you do
by customizing the variable `rmail-spam-definitions-alist'.
My mail goes through a filter before I get it, which writes lots of
guff in the headers. The spams have an X-Spam-Flag: YES header, so I
just use this:
(setq rmail-spam-definitions-alist
'(((from . "") (to . "") (subject . "")
(contents . "X-Spam-Flag: YES")
(action . output-and-delete))))
