ok, good news -- it wasn't produced by SpamAssassin, it comes from
the formail command.  See:

: jm 270...; formail -d -I "From " -a "From " -s < ~/DL/bug4988-message.txt > o
: jm 271...; diff ~/DL/bug4988-message-mbox.txt o

(in other words, it's missing the harmless fetchmail Received hdr,
and the datestamps in the From lines are different -- but the
second, problematic From line was added.)

Here is the culprit -- formail's "-d" switch:

  -d   Tell formail that the messages it is supposed to split need not  be  in
      strict  mailbox  format  (i.e., allows you to split digests/articles or
      non-standard mailbox formats).  This disables recognition of  the  Con-
      tent-Length: field.

remove that switch, and it works fine. ;)
Michael, would it be possible to alter the fetchmail command line accordingly?


Regarding the other issue: what mass-check should do -- I think we can
simply close this bug, since this is an "artificial" issue created entirely
by that formail command; it wasn't caused by the "real" spam itself in any
way.  Marking INVALID.
