What OS are you running?
If a BSD-variant, try switching off the SpamAssassin Cache (in
MailScanner.conf) and then restart MailScanner.
There appears to be something funny with the cache on some bsd-based
boxes. Haven't got to the bottom of that yet. Need new devel server,
which is still on the cards.
