If you simply can't miss any mail, there is an easy workaround. Start a
new spamd on a new port; Change the spamc config to point to that new
port.  Kill the old spamd. Start a new spamd on the normal port; Change
spamc to point to the normal port. Kill the alternate-port spamd.

Silly, but functional.
