I'm now getting back to this issue after being diverted to other projects. =
Spam has been noticed by our staff and they're not happy. :)

Here's what the tcp dump show:

mailfilter-root@~# tcpdump -nei pflog0 port 8025
tcpdump: WARNING: pflog0: no IPv4 address assigned
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode

...


The pflog0 shows that all incoming packets are blocked by rule #0 which is:

@0 scrub in all fragment reassemble
@0 block drop in log all


And

mailfilter-root@~# spamdb | g GREY
mailfilter-root@~#

No greytrapping is occurring. Is the 'scrub' rule screwing up our packets? =
Our pf.conf worked fine in version 8.2 prior to the upgrade to 9.0.

Also why am I being warned that there isn't an IPv4 address assigned to pfl=
og0?

Pertinent pf.conf section related to spamd:

# spamd-setup puts addresses to be redirected into table <spamd>.
table <spamd> persist
table <spamd-white> persist
table <spamd-mywhite> persist file "/usr/local/etc/spamd/spamd-mywhite"
table <spamd-spf> persist file "/usr/local/etc/spamd/spamd-spf.txt"
