I have no idea what's wrong with this...however you may want to have a 
look at razor (http://razor.sourceforge.net/). It's a distributed SPAM 
checking system. Basically you don't  have to worry about keeping a list 
of the senders etc....you just use procmail to pass all your mail through 
razor-check, if it matches a known SPAM message you can have procmail do 
as you like with (direct to /dev/null etc...).

There's also a razor-report program that allows you to feed new SPAM 
messages into the systems. While it doesn't work 100%, it does catch a lot 
of the usual stuff going around.
