Yes, it is ugly, but will probably work fine. :-)
Allow me a few comments:

Use absolute file names - you're accessing /var/log/maillog
only once.

Don't write temporary files to /var/log, use /tmp instead.

You could omit the spam.tmp file and output the grep result
into awk directly, or maybe better, use awk's pattern matching.
Then you would have something like this:
grep -i "spam=YES" /var/log/maillog | awk '{print $11}' | sort | uniq | sed -e 's/^.*=//' > /tmp/spam-ip.txt
Or if you want to omit the grep call:
awk '/spam=YES/ {print $11}' /var/log/maillog | sort | uniq | sed -e 's/^.*=//' > /tmp/spam-ip.txt
And then continue:
cat /tmp/spam-ip.txt >> /usr/samba/mail/envelope
cat /tmp/spam-ip.txt | mail -s "SPAM IPs...." us.navy@outlook.com
Finally, you can easily remove /tmp/spam-ip.txt.
The sort | uniq step is a very interesting and useful one.
Good idea! Have a look at "man sort" if sort -g fits your
needs better than the default, which I think is -n.
