Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I thought the "-H" switch was supposed to handle
this?  Also the "-d" option alone never falls back if I kill spamd on the
first host.  Behaviour is the same with or without the dnscache
"round-robin" patch; spamc sticks to one IP.

Unless someone thinks otherwise, I'll visit Bugzilla and call this a spamc
bug.

It's intentional that you can't connect to it. :)  Both machines are
properly secured.
