For our systems 99.9% of the time we call spamassassin via vdelivermail also as
this gets around simscan's poor handling of multiple recipient adresses.

However...  when we have dedicated scanning boxes that receive email, scan with
spamassassin, and then forward the email on to another server we still use
simscan to employ spamasassin during the smtp session.  It is for these
situations where there is no relevant mailbox on the server where spamassassin
is running that I'm seeing the behaviour I reported.

With further thought on this - perhaps the log entry "info: handle_user unable
to find user: 'simscan'"  is simply an info message that can be ignored in this
configuration??  We *are* getting the mail scanned so spamd *is* working.

ie - when the user is not on the box I assume we fall into this block of code.

# we *still* die if this can't be found
2158        if (!defined $userdir) {
2159            my $errmsg = "spamd: handle_user unable to find user:
'$prefsfrom'\n";
2160            die $errmsg if $spamtest->{'paranoid'};
2161            # if we are given a username, but can't look it up, maybe name
2162            # services are down?  let's break out here to allow them to get
2163            # 'defaults' when we are not running paranoid
2164            info($errmsg);
2165            return 0;
2166        }


It just seems untidy...
