Bug Description
Binary package hint: spamassassin
spamassassin appears to maintain its 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.
