You are using a slightly old version of the languages file that doesn't
have the line
spam=spam
in it. It's a harmless error.

You have something wrong with your "Is Definitely Not Spam" setting. You
have tried to use
To:     some-IP-address
in your spam whitelist file. You can't do this as you don't know the IP
address you are going to send it to until you have actually sent it. When
using IP addresses in rules, you can only match "From". Matching "To" is
simply not possible.
