Sorry.  It really was the case.  spamassassin was taking so long to
process messages that it caused some connections to time out.  But,
sourceware didn't detect this and delivered the message anyway.  Then
the original sender reconnected to try again and hilarity ensued.

I made a few changes to sourceware's smtp handler to deal with the
problem.  It still isn't remarkably speedy but it shouldn't have this
problem again.
