OK, I found out what the problem was: spamc was unable to connect to the spamd TCP socket so it simply passed the message as is. The problem is that SPAMDOPTIONS in /etc/sysconfig/spamd used --socketpath while to read from "man spamd":

       --socketpath pathname
           Listen on a UNIX domain socket at path pathname, in addition to
           sockets specified with a "--listen" option. This option is provided
           for compatibility with older versions of spamd. Starting with
           version 3.4.0 the "--listen" option can also take a UNIX domain
           socket as its value (an absolute path name). Unlike "--socketpath",
           the "--listen" option may be specified multiple times if spamd
           needs to listen on multiple UNIX or INET or INET6 sockets.

           Warning: the Perl support on BSD platforms for UNIX domain sockets
           seems to have a bug regarding paths of over 100 bytes or so
           (SpamAssassin bug 4380).  If you see a 'could not find newly-
           created UNIX socket' error message, and the path appears truncated,
           this may be the cause.  Try using a shorter path to the socket.

           By default, use of --socketpath without --listen will inhibit SSL
           connections and unencrypted TCP connections.  To add other sockets,
           specify them with --listen, e.g. '--listen=:' or '--listen=*:'

After I changed SPAMDOPTIONS to this line, everything is working again:

SPAMDOPTIONS="-d -c -m5 -H --syslog=/var/log/spamassassin/spamd.log --listen=/run/spamd/spamd.socket --listen=localhost:783"

I think I'll fix the package too.
