Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: spamassassin

spamassassin appears to maintain it's own internal cache of the IPs of
the DNS resolvers for a system that persists long after they change.
Specifically, if I boot my laptop at home (where $HOMEISP are the DNS),
suspend my laptop and come into work, after I resume spamassassin
continues to talk to $HOMEISP DNS servers, rather than the $WORK DNS
servers (confirmed via tcpdump/wireshark).

Either spamassassin should cache less aggressively or it needs to notice
that the DNS resolvers have changed.
