BTW, as far as I know (I'm not sure about the sink's details) SpamAssassin doesn't actually modify the message body it was passed (unless it was marked as spam). I'd suggest dumping the message body strings at several points in the sink, including directly before calling SpamAssassin and directly afterwards. It should not be SpamAssassin doing this. - --j.
