Very strange. The log file you sent doesn't indicate anything out of the ordinary -- from the logged data, it looks like the remote server sends 1922 bytes of the message data, then stops sending. spamdyke times out and disconnects.
Could you send me one of the complete messages that you receive when spamdyke is removed? I suspect this is some kind of obscure race condition, triggered by the size and timing of data packets sent by the remote server (I fixed a bug like this back in version 3.1.6). It might help to see what the rest of the message looks like and how much data there is. In the meantime, I'll start working on ways to reproduce this.
