Thanks for your suggestion, I am back in the office after having to take 
  yesterday off.  I will consider this when I get back into looking into 
this problem.  One positive is that it had stopped logging sascore again 
since I last looked at it on Tuesday.  So it looks like it is failing 
more quickly than before, so I should be able to switch on DBItrace and 
wait for it to fail.

MailScanner is correctly marking emails and they are being filtered 
correctly. It is only that MailWatch suddenly starts logging sascore and 
sareport as NULL, all other values are logged correctly.  I did try 
turning off the SpamAssassin score cache to see it it was a problem with 
that, but it failed with that as well.

I will report back to the list if I discover anything more.
