Exact same problem here.

We upgraded our spam scanners to Debian/Sarge during the last days, with
a manual
out-of-the-box installation of spamassassin 3.03, but since around after
10:00 CEST (08:00 GMT) today (2005-06-01), spamd memory usage explodes
till the system gives up. Downgrading to 3.02 seems to solve the
problem, i.e. memory
usage stays constant.

This did not happen yesterday, even though we had no change in
email volume. 

Maybe its only a specific kind of spam that triggers this?
