You have to tell spamd to listen to the IP address of the Ethernet port
on your linux box an not just on the loopback address:

netstat -lpn | grep 783
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:783               0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      15865/spamd -q -x -

I believe it's the -i flag that tells spamd to listen on your ethernet
adapter's address.
