amavisd-new-2.4.1 and long-line 8-bit bodies

Dears,

do you believe it is possible that amavisd-new abruptly
shuts its ingoing
connection with postfix when it encounters an 8-bit encoded
body with long
lines (say, >256 bytes)?
It is a couple of years now I deployed amavisd-new into my
mail servers
using the "queue -> amavisd-new -> queue",
but I never see this. This is not
a frequent case, however.

Well, anything is possible when one is dealing with
computers 
although I'm not aware of any such particular problem.

As in your case it is a body (not a header section) which
contains
unusual text, my first guess would be SpamAssassin rules.

It the same message failing every time? If so, it makes a
perfect
candidate to snatch it from a MTA queue or from a preserved
temporary
directory and feed it to a command line spamassassin:
  su vscan -c 'spamassassin -t -D <0.msg'

If this does not help locating the problem, bring up the
log level in amavisd, and when you notice an aborted
process,
grep the log for that log id and see what was the last
action
logged by that child process.
