Ah, I've finally seen that stray '--' which differentiates the spamass-milter command from the spamc command. Thank you Harald, that helps alot. I guess by default spamass-milter tries to communicate on the tcp:socket using spamc. I wonder how many hundreds of sysadmins have gotten killed by that one, without knowing why?
