These two are most likely unrelated. The first one can be
safely disregarded - if it occurs often, it can be investigated
and eventually avoided, I'd need a sample message and possibly a
full debug log of spamassassin.

The second one means that a SMTP client which sent a mail message
to your MTA was not RFC 2821 -compliant, and 'forgot' to double the
leading dots. If the sending client was not yours, there isn't much
you can do about it except complain to the sender. If you have any
control over it, its sloppy SMTP client-side implementation needs
to be fixed.

As far as amavisd is concerned, the message is informational only.
