I cannot remember exactly where I got this from, but I recall that  
it was
specifically only looking at messages smaller than 256000 bytes;  
larger
mails may well cause problems with SA, apparently.

Your recipe is a few years out of date.  Spamassassin will not  
process mail over 256K in size since at least 3.x, and I think it was  
changed to do this in 2.6...

I also use spamc rather than spamassassin because it was  
recommended at
the time; whether this should make a difference I don't know, but I  
seem
to recall you yourself said somewhere that if you switched to spamc it
all worked; why not just do that?

spamc requires spamd to be running on the system.  It is much faster  
than running spamassassin.

(and no, you never need a lock file for a filter)
