Nicole,
You need to add a --max-children=8 (for example) parameter to the
command you've shown. See "man spamd" for details, as there are some
factors with this parameter that you should be aware of.

You set a limit on the number of children spawnable in your run file and
you're exceeding that. You either need to tune your system to process
messages faster, or raise that limit in your run file.
(As a side note, is there a way to make your MSN auto wrap message lines
that are too long?)
jake, can you please tell me where should i change the settings for the
above recommendations?
btw i am using putty to access the machine, i dont use MSN at work place.

This is showing the message as rejected, but I do see an error in your
spamd log that may be causing you some grief:
info: prefork: server reached --max-children setting, consider raising it
You set a limit on the number of children spawnable in your run file and
you're exceeding that. You either need to tune your system to process
messages faster, or raise that limit in your run file.
