Had this problem on two machines.

I solved it by deinstalling spamassassin and all perl modules it
depended upon, reinstalling it and all mandatory and optional perl
modules it requires.

I'd also like to point out I user pkg_rmleaves to perform this task.
This is easier than doing it by hand using pkg_delete and less error
prone. You could, obviously, also have portmaster adn portupgrade
perform the task, but they'd update a whole lot more ports which don't
really need to be rebuilt.(like the perl interpreter itself)

Thanks for the recomendation. I was concerned about the new perl default 5.10. I have yet to update it. Maybe I should just bit the bullet and do it all at once. I'll look at pkg_rmleaves first.

Thanks for letting me know your solution for the error message.

Have a great day and weekend.
