Odd one this. It may be doing the checks as I see the X-Virus-Scanned 
header "Debian amavis at mail-www.howitts.co.uk".

Previously in ClearOS (based on Centos7), I would see in the mail log 
something like:

So spamassassin must be communicating with amavis somehow. I'll keep 
digging.

Fixed by setting /etc/mailname correctly, thanks.
