You don't have to sound so surprised!  :^D

Glad that led to a fix for you.  You might want to check the umask of
the user you installed the rpms as.  (probably root)  Not sure if that
will affect the permissions on files installed via an rpm or not.  I
don't think it should but worth checking.

The other possibility is that someone ran a recursive chmod on the one
box by accident and changed them.  If it happened recently check the
history log of root for chmod commands.  This is more likely where the
problem came from IMHO.

Spamassassin is a great tool.  Now if we can only get it to actually
kill the spammers......
