Thanks for another good idea.  Just to make absolutely sure there were no
permissions issues, I went in as root and manually ran the email in question
through spamassassin -D, but I got the same results.

I did find these lines in the debug output:
debug: URIDNSBL: domains to query: tvuu.wneiis-MUNGEDplanet.info
dkcw.wneiis-MUNGEDplanet.info
----and----
debug: URIDNSBL: queries completed: 0 started: 0
debug: URIDNSBL: queries active: DNSBL=2 NS=2 at Thu Sep 23 13:36:08 2004
debug: done waiting for URIDNSBL lookups to complete

Apparently the lookups timed out.  I assume that's something to do with the
fact that it's checking for  tvuu.wneiis-MUNGEDplanet.info instead of just
wneiis-MUNGEDplanet.info, but I don't know enough about how the URI RBLs
work to be sure.

I'm stumped at this point, but fortunately a) it works most of the time and
b) other checks like Razor and DCC seem to be kicking in to push these
messages over the Spam threshhold anyway.  So I guess it's not a major
issue - I was just wondering if anyone else had run into it and if it was
something I should report as a bug.

Thanks for all your help and ideas!

Sandy
