I received no replies to this, but working on it a bit more yesterday it
seems that
transport_filter = /usr/bin/spamc -f "${if exists \
{TABLES/spam-configs/$local_part} {-C TABLES/spam-configs/$local_part}}"
fails whilst
transport_filter = /usr/bin/spamc -f -C "${if exists \
{TABLES/spam-configs/$local_part} {TABLES/spam-configs/$local_part}}"
works fine. (I change spamc to accept -C with or without an following
argument).

John.
