Hello Scott,

i run into same Problem with Spamassassin and Perl v5.8.7.
After a backport to 5.8.6_2 all thins run fine.
I have no relly good reason found why the behavior is, but i have many 
hint's found
that say's that this is a generally io-problem with perl v5.8.7.

So that i have made a entry in my sup/refuse that i not running anymore into
that Problem

best regards

Michael
