I can only guess, but I conclude that you did something like:
	Server has IP1, IP2, IP3, ...
	Add IP2 to <spamd>
	Telnet from the server to IP1
That does not work! You have to use a real remote host to test the rdr rule. 
But as Pyun tried to tell you, frist check whether spamd is working at all by 
telnetting to 127.0.0.1 8025 directly (w/o the rdr rule interfering).
