You will need to debug your program, apparently it gives up
reading from stdin and closes it, probably on termination or
crash. Open some debug file in spambox.pl (or a syslog) and
sprinkle some debug printouts in there.

One difference is that when forked from amavisd the UID is
that of the amavisd process. Another is that there is no
controlling terminal associated with a process. Also the
PATH environment variable may not be the same as in an
interactive session.
