[Pkg-dspam-misc] Bug#401623: dspam: adds new X-DSPAM headers instead of replacing them

Package: dspam
Version: 3.6.8-4
Severity: normal


When receiving mail with X-DSPAM headers already present,
local dspam adds its own to the bottom. This could be used
by spammers to trick people filtering on Result: Innocent
But it also prevents error learning as the provided signature
is not found in the local database (and dspam quits on the
first signature found). It's quite a problem for resent
messages (mutt's bounce).
I see no reason to keep externally generated X-DSPAM headers,
but would suggest to overwrite them with the local data.
