No, the Solarspeed AV-SPAM uses the stock Sendmail, but brings its own 
sendmail.mc and sendmail.cf aboard. Beyond that it just adds a few bits and 
pieces from a seaprate YUM repository, like ClamAV, SpamAssassin and the 
necessary milters. There are provisions in some AV-SPAM CCE constructors that 
deal with Sendmail config changes and the initSendmail.sh script of BlueOnyx 
also has a small provision that deals with the presence of the AV-SPAM to make 
things a little easier.
