mailscanner/spamassassin strangeness

[Gerry Doris]

For what it's worth I get different results when using spamd/c and just
spamassassin on the sample-spam.txt message.  It seems consistent with
spamd/c giving 16+ hits and spamassassin giving 19+.  This seems to have
started with the newest version of spamassassin???
