The apt-cache policy results for spamassassin:

spamassassin:
  Installed: 3.1.0a-2
  Candidate: 3.1.0a-2
  Version table:
 *** 3.1.0a-2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper/universe Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     3.0.4-2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages

Which is to say, Dapper has the most up-to-date version. You
might consider installing Dapper's version. I've been
running Dapper for a few days now, for every single package
on my machine, and I've had almost no problems at all.

You could always use pinning (see apt-config(8)) to upgrade
just spamassassin and the packages that it depends on, while
leaving the rest of your machine at Breezy.
