Correct. spamd-setup use "pfctl -t spamd -Tr XXX" to fill that table.

yes and no, spamd-setup is hardwired to use table name "spamd", so if
you use spamd-setup, the table name "spamd" is reserved for that usage.
So if you don'd use spamd-setup, you can do whatever you want with the
table called "spamd".
