since I still have spamassassin 3.1.4 (debian sarge default) I didn't apply
the patch.

Simply adding the rules you pointed out dramatically lowered the processing
time from 100-150 seconds to 1-20 and the queue vanished completely.


  score __RCVD_IN_WHOIS 0
  score RCVD_IN_WHOIS_INVALID 0
  score URIBL_COMPLETEWHOIS 0

Very nice!!

Now I guess I should spend some time understanding the rules... ;-)

Thanks to all for the help
