I am seeing a LOT of these but have been watching for them
in the Panic Log as they are more isolated there.
Mine are without the "rejection" since I use "defer_ok"
# ACL modifier
spam = username/defer_ok
Spam lookups (SpamAssassin) are supposedly cached and since
I have a LOT of "Spam check stanzas" in my Config so I am
pretty sure that every message gets checked, but sometimes
the unimportant check MIGHT get skipped.
FYI: I reordered the checks so that my first Spam check is
the one that "rewrites the subject line" meaning if it is skipped
only the visual marker is omitted -- and the later checks are
the ones for marking subjects with SEVERE spam and adding the
headers.
I have resisted posting since it was completely unclear to me
if this is a SpamD problem or an Exim problem -- or both.
But SpamD was occasionally having trouble in another email server
that only got "one look" at the email and used SpamC to do that.
My research through the syslog SpamD entries SEEMS to (loosely)
correctly with __ALARM__ entries for SpamD.
Best GUESS: It's a SpamD 'feature', but this is only an educated
guess based on chasing it for only one full day.

Good pickup -- if it is related to .zip files, I can research
my logs further and maybe pinpoint the issue.
BTW, I only spam check files <200k in size.
And I am running a pre-release of SpamAssassin 3.10
