nothing like that in my mail log.
in fact, i dont even see a line reading "spamd: processing message $MSGID" for
the offending mails in my mail log...
the last bits in my mail log about the message id of the offending message is
when its comes out of clamsmtpd, and gets passed to "spamcheck" which is my
local transport through spamd and then into imap. but no spamd lines about
that mail.
