Hi Scarab,
I had a kinda similar problem because there is two place to define antispam bypass and one of them wasn't working until a silent fix was introduced in recent build (but not announced in it's changelog).
We had added by mistake the IP address of our incoming gateway in one of the spam check skip configuration but it wasn't affecting us until this fix, because it wasn't taken into and now it is...
I opened a thread about this is more a monologue as I got no answer and found out myself the culprit.
Kind regards.
