Now, oddly enough--it seems that my problem turned out to be not
SpamAssassin but some typo in my firewall that was blocking razor agent.
I looked at it 30 times and couldn't find it, so eventually gave up,
copied over a working firewall from another box and edited that.  

So, in my case, it turned out to not be SpamAssassin. (The reason I'd
thought it was fixed last night was because the mail was going to a
different box, where mail isn't filtered, and it was so late by that
time I was punchy.)

Hindsight is 20/20 and I should have realized this with the not
permitted part of my error.
