You're right about my mistake using pipes, but there may be some cases where 
validating input make sense.

Anyway, many thanks for your wrapper, I've improved it to fail safely on dspam 
errors.

====
#!/bin/sh

tmpf="/var/tmp/wrapper.$$.log"
trap 'rc=$?; rm -f $tmpf; exit $rc' EXIT

/usr/bin/dspam --client --deliver=stdout --user "$1" >$tmpf

if [ $? -eq 0 ] ; then
        test -s $tmpf && /usr/bin/preline -f \
        /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d "$1" -a "$1" -m "$2" <$tmpf
else
        rm -f $tmpf
        exit 75
fi
