While updating spamassassin, several emails were destructive lost because of the absence of spamc. To be fair, the date did get stuck unexpectedly asking for a confirmation, but still I’d like to avoid this happening again.

The result is a message that has a minimal set of headers and no content.

This is a Postfix configuration problem. Don't use the 'pipe' transport for spam filtering or make sure that whatever it is calling is a *robust* script that does not rely on the pipe transport to handle breakage.
