Never tried spamassassin myself.

I.e., spamassassin calls avcheck to reinject message back to postfix.
Cute.  Note that this speeds up reinjections significantly ;)

Hmm...  No, postfix does NOT cut random pieces in SMTP.  The problem is NOT
inside postfix.

I just looked at avcheck - no, it seems it should not cut recipients this
bad.  Verified this using sender address shown above and my address as
recipient.

I think the best is to try to find WHERE the bug - and yes this is a bug - is.
If you're able to do little programming, add a code to both spamc and avcheck
to log a command line in order to see who's doing this bad thing.

I'm sorry I can't help you here directly as I don't have a time to install
spamassassin, but I'm very interested to find out where the bug is.

BTW, can spamassassin's daemon accept email using SMTP?  I.e., why
there is a need to run a program (spamc) in order to contact with
spamd?
