Have you installed my patch for SpamAssassin 2.50?
If so, and you are still having problems with it, you are not alone. I have
seen a problem on one customer's server that was blocking on SpamAssassin
2.50 even after the patch was applied.
My only recommendation in this case is to back off to SpamAssassin 2.44 and
wait for 2.51 to be released, which will hopefully fix these problems.
