Correct ... the Info user doesn't exist, but then it doesn't revert to
the SHAREDSPAM user, it reverts to root ... I'll add the flag and repost
...

Thanks!

Could you add "-d rcpt" to your spamass-milter commandline and send
another test message?  I'm interested in the sendmail -bv output, what
the incoming address was, and what you expected it to be.  It seems to
have decided the user "info" was the correct one, which doesn't
correspond with a local user on your system.
