There isn't a mac version of the SpamBayes Outlook plug-in.  However, you
can use the POP3 proxy (or IMAP filter) with a mac, just like you would with
a Windows/Linux mailer that wasn't Outlook.  If the mac is getting mail via
POP3 or IMAP4 (rather than (eg) Exchange) then that should work fine.

You'll need to download the .tar.gz archive of the 1.0.1 source.  The
readme.txt file inside should explain what you need to do - if you have any
troubles, please let us know.

I believe that there's also a packaged (for mac) version of spambayes
available via the wiki: http://entrian.com/sbwiki
