spamass-milter[27557]: Could not retrieve sendmail macro "i"!.
Please add it to confMILTER_MACROS_ENVFROM for better spamassassin

(I am not using sendmail, other than postfix’s sendmail
replacement)
See the documentation of the milter_*_macros in 'man 5 postconf' and
MILTER_README
From postconf -d
milter_data_macros = i
milter_end_of_data_macros = i
milter_end_of_header_macros = i
milter_mail_macros = i {auth_type} {auth_authen} {auth_author}
{mail_addr} {mail_host} {mail_mailer}
milter_rcpt_macros = i {rcpt_addr} {rcpt_host} {rcpt_mailer}
And since '-d' tells you what Postfix does by default, you should
confirm that 'postconf -n |grep milter' does not show you any of those
settings without the 'i' macro.
An i is supposed to return the queue ID. Why this confuses/upsets
spamass-milter is not clear, nor which of these might be the issue. I
did find at least two mentions via google that said this message can
be ignored and some bugzilla entries that didn’t show any useful
information and marked the bug as closed more than two years ago.

Yes, spamass-milter is apparently abandonware.
These non-default Postfix settings might help:
enable_long_queue_ids = yes
smtpd_delay_open_until_valid_rcpt = no
The first one makes Postfix open a queue file and assign an ID before
it's sure that it will need to queue the message. Without this,
milter_mail_macros and milter_rcpt_macros can't operationally include a
real queue ID because there won't be one until one RCPT has been
accepted.
The second one makes Postfix queue IDs look more like Sendmail queue IDs
(and non-repeating.) That may be meaningless to spamass-milter (I have
not checked the code) but it's POSSIBLE that it expects something like a
Sendmail queue ID (long, mixed-case alphanumeric) and is unhappy with a
classical short Postfix queue ID (shorter, all uppercase hex.)
