'spamc/spamassassin' crashing with overlong blank line spams?

Hi!

Seemingly our spamc (3.1.9, not yet 3.2.*) can not transfer a special kind of current spam to a remote spamd. Those Mails always produce '0/0' instead of usable reports.

You can see something like the Mail I analyzed at http://page.mi.fu-berlin.de/stucki/mail.txt (I had change the offending line for the browser too, so at the end you seen a descriptive line only)

Is this a known failure of the old spamc? Is the MTA supposed to fix Mails with overlong blank/any lines?

Do I have to switch to 3.2.* to fix it?

Would it be possible to 'just take' a
newer 'spamc (3.2.*)' to communicate to
an old 'spamd(3.1.*)' or did the protocol change somehow?

Thanks for hints ... Yours Stucki

Do you need help?X

PS.: Ideas welcome for catching the characteristic Subject of those spams, which look like 'just random tty line noise'!
