Hi.
503 is the userid of the spamd user.
Since the first header indicates the localhost, my guess is that the mail
was sent from the postfix machine itself, and not from another machine using
it as a relay.

Best regards.

I'm no expert on Received headers, but:

Received:       from 212.214.136.47 (EHLO smtp-fe2.ballou.se)
(212.214.136.47) by mta128.mail.sc5.yahoo.com with SMTP; Thu, 11 Dec 2003

Received:       from localhost [127.0.0.1] by smtp-fe2 with SpamAssassin
(2.60 1.212-2003-09-23-exp); Fri, 12 Dec 2003 08:14:28 +0100

Isn't that last header saying that the outgoing mail/smtp connection
was made from a local machine, using user-id 503?
