I will add the code, although updating RPM contents is one of the things I was trying to avoid.
"systemctl edit" creates a "drop-in" that overrides a portion of the vendor-provided file. It exists specifically to avoid editing rpm-provided files.
Having said that, I have restarted the service after bootup has completed and this does not fix the problem.
Well, that error can also be caused by Net::DNS being unable to parse /etc/resolv.conf, or the spamassassin force_ipv4 or force_ipv6 setting with no DNS servers of that address family.
What does your /etc/resolv.conf look like?
You might also try starting spamd manually, and adding "-D dns" to the arguments currently used. That will log a good deal of additional information about the DNS configuration, and you should be able to figure out where spamd is getting its DNS servers (configuration or Net::DNS).
