I've been staring at the code for a while, upped the debugging, and watched a
few more message come through marked as spam without reason.

My guess as to the cause? Incorrect ordered read of results from DNS resolver.
Here's why. In the debug log, I see:

Jan  2 21:48:44 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: URIDNSBL: domain "samba.org"
listed (URIBL_PH_SURBL): 129.97.50.62 
Jan  2 21:48:44 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: URIDNSBL: domain "samba.org"
listed (URIBL_AB_SURBL): 129.97.50.62 
Jan  2 21:48:44 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: URIDNSBL: domain "samba.org"
listed (URIBL_WS_SURBL): 129.97.50.62 
Jan  2 21:48:44 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: URIDNSBL: domain "samba.org"
listed (URIBL_OB_SURBL): 129.97.50.62 
Jan  2 21:48:44 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: URIDNSBL: domain "samba.org"
listed (URIBL_SC_SURBL): 129.97.50.62 

Looking at the reverse DNS for 129.97.50.62, I find that it's
engmail.uwaterloo.ca, the mail server that I use, and therefore showing in one
of the received headers. (earlier in the log, I saw:
Jan  2 21:48:41 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: looking up A records for
'engmail.uwaterloo.ca' 
Jan  2 21:48:41 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: A records for
'engmail.uwaterloo.ca': 129.97.50.62 
Jan  2 21:48:41 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: looking up A records for
'engmail.uwaterloo.ca' 
Jan  2 21:48:41 localhost spamd[13745]: debug: A records for
'engmail.uwaterloo.ca': 129.97.50.62 
)

Now, my problem is this: I don't know where to go from here. Looking at the
code, I don't quite grok the dns lookup loop. That is to say, I have no clue how
it works. 

Cheers, Vance
