On windows? Probably nowhere. I don't think Windows has a syslogd.

On *nix, spamd will log to the mail facility, so it will end up
where-ever syslogd is configured to write that facility, generally
/var/log/maillog.

If you're just invoking "spamassassin" instead of spamc/spamd, then even
on linux there's no logging. The spamassassin script is really intended
to be simple enough to use by hand, but not really offer many features,
nor offer reasonable performance for general server-side use.

It varies. It seems to be in /var/log/ "somewhere". For RH/FC it seems to
be in /var/log/maillog*. I hope that helps.
