I recall seeing a few messages describing something like this before, but
nothing recently.  What spambayes application are you using?  (sb_filter?
sb_server?  sb_imapfilter?)  Are you using 1.0a6?  The most likely cause is
that the message is incorrectly formed, and spambayes is 'finding' the blank
line between headers and body in the wrong place.

Yes :)  Probably the best plan is to open a bug tracker via sourceforge
<http://sf.net/projects/spambayes> with your description, then add to it as
you track it down.  If you find the cause and can fix it, then add the patch
to the tracker.  One of the developers can then quickly check it in so that
everyone benefits :)  It also means that it won't get lost among list
traffic.
