I suppose this is where server ID 1282 comes from:

dcc2.dcc-servers.net,-      RTT+1000 ms  anon
#  80.91.36.101,-                                   dcc1.aftenposten.no ID 1215
#     100% of 32 requests ok  341.14+1000 ms RTT       100 ms queue wait
#  208.82.128.50,-                                                   ID 1282
#      97% of 32 requests ok  244.61+1000 ms RTT       100 ms queue wait

(That was from `cdcc info` on my machine.)

I took your advice and ran the last spam in my junk mail folder through dccproc, it basically behaved like this:

[ophid...@dakota ~]$ cat junkmsg44.txt | dccproc -H
X-DCC-dcc.uncw.edu-Metrics: dakota 1201; Body=2 Fuz1=2 Fuz2=2

...

[ophid...@dakota ~]$ cat junkmsg44.txt | dccproc -H
X-DCC-dcc.uncw.edu-Metrics: dakota 1201; Body=3 Fuz1=3 Fuz2=3

...so I think the underlying mechanism is working, question is, why are all the Fuz2's normal? Even if I was somehow modifying
the message (which I don't think I am), wouldn't Fuz2 ignore it?

By the way here is the original message.

I am using dccm with sendmail, and I always see a header like this:

X-DCC--Metrics: dakota 1282; Body=1 Fuz1=1 Fuz2=1

There's no server name any more (like "eatserver"), and all the checksum
values are always a count of "1".

How would I diagnose any potential problem?

The string between "X-DCC-" and "-Metrics" is a server name, but
my poor idea of a "brand" of DCC server, like "MAPS".  Many DCC
servers do not set their brand names.

The number "1282" in that X-DCC header is the server-ID of server you
are using.  You can see its IP address with the command `cdcc info`.
You should even see its reverse DNS name with `cdcc "info -N"`

Dccm, dccifd, and dccproc monitor the total round trip time to up to
a dozen DCC servers and use the fastest.

If you literally always see body counts of 1, then something is adding
text to your incoming email before dccm sees it.
Try feeding a mail message to `dccproc -H` to see if the counts change.
