Hmm.. so this is really a Razor bug then, huh?  :)

I did the following:

--- mimedefang.pl.orig  Tue Jun  4 15:12:00 2002
+++ mimedefang.pl       Tue Jun  4 15:20:44 2002
@@ -3418,9 +3418,13 @@
        return undef;
     }

+    my @msg;
+
     open(IN, "<./INPUTMSG") or return undef;
-    my @msg = <IN>;
-    close(IN);
+    while(<IN>) {
+      $_ =~ tr/\015//d;
+      push(@msg,$_);
+    }

     return Mail::SpamAssassin::NoMailAudit->new(data=>\@msg);
 }

..which makes it return the proper Razor checksum.

I'll talk to the Razor guys and see if they can change the code to ignore
^M's..
