This is just a shot in the dark, but would it be possible to modify the
email parser sufficiently so that it gave more detail about where it was
when the error condition was detected (e.g., what body line number, header
and/or MIME part)?  That might allow Spambayes to tweak the message in the
right spot and retry the parse.
