We found the same and the cause was that there was some problem with
razor-lookups. You will probably see something like this when you do
netstat:
$sudo netstat -plant | grep spam
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:783 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 19431/spamd.pid
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:783 127.0.0.1:36611 CLOSE_WAIT 31537/spamd child
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:783 127.0.0.1:36616 CLOSE_WAIT 21337/spamd child
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:783 127.0.0.1:36620 CLOSE_WAIT 21804/spamd child
tcp 0 0 146.232.64.13:36629 70.42.39.14:2703 ESTABLISHED 21804/spamd child
tcp 0 1 146.232.64.13:36617 70.42.39.14:2703 SYN_SENT 31537/spamd child
tcp 0 1 146.232.64.13:36618 70.42.39.14:2703 SYN_SENT 21337/spamd child
The SYN_SENT-lines indicates a problem. That keeps spamassassin busy
and then exim get the time-out.
Sometimes it helps when you run a "razor-admin -discover -d" as the user
which runs spamassassin - in our case "spamd" is the user.
