Looking at the /var/log/mail.log file, I see the following:

If Debian 3.1 installs a new version of Perl, I would guess that's the issue. Mail::SpamAssassin is probably installed on the old Perl. Since Debian has a policy of not updating major versions of packages on "stable" releases, I would guess that SA is probably installed from source rather than through APT.

Bottom line: you probably need to reinistall Mail::SpamAssassin (preferably through the same mechanism it was last installed by, be it apt-get, CPAN, or source).

Real bottom line: ask your sysadmin not to do major upgrades just before leaving! (Despite the version numbering, Debian 3.0 to 3.1 is a major upgrade. I seriously expected it to be Debian 4.0.)
