There is an option
Always Include SpamAssassin Report = no
in your MailScanner.conf file. Please set this to "yes" and try again. This
time it should always give you the spam report, which may include more of a
clue as to what is happening. Also, try setting the SpamAssassin timeout to
40 seconds instead of 30, again in MailScanner.conf.
