Let it be known that everything was working in the past 70 days as well
as when I inspected the server due to the complaints. I simply lost a
lot of my dynamicallly whitelisted hosts (if not all of them; not
sure). So I am currently re-validating senders right now. I did find
a mention of possible corruption of the spamdb database in the
changelog for 4.1 -> 4.2:
RELIABILITY FIX: Bugs in spamd(8) could corrupt the database.
I'm not sure if I have fallen victim to this.
