Spamassassin, mailscanner 3, etc.

I ran 1000 known spams through the mailscanner/spamassassin setup to see
what the percentage was.  It was about 70%, not to great, particularly
since spamassassin is supposed to be in the high 90's.  So I looked at
the messages that weren't marked.  Sure enough, some of them do get
tagged as spam if I run them manually through spamassassin.  Before I go
tracking this down, is it something obvious?  Could it be something
timing out given the load that 1000 emails simultaneously tends to put
on a mail server?

Any ideas are appreciated.

Thanks,
Michael
