Line wrapping fixed. When you paste logfiles, it's much easier to read them
if you leave them as one line per log entry:

Possible. If you add "-d spamc", you can see the message sent and the
result returned from spamassassin itself. That message is printed when
spamass-milter can't find the X-Spam-Status: header. It could be caused by
a parsing bug.
