Making spamd listen on another IP

Hello,

I'm trying to setup spamassassin (for the first time) and using spamd
over a network.  The problem I'm getting is that no matter what I do I
can only get spamd to listed on 127.0.0.1.

I'm testing with 

spamc -c -d 192.168.0.80 <test.msg

If I run spamd from the prompt with no arguments and try spamc -c
<test.msg I get 17/10.  If I run spamd with the '-i 192.168.0.80' or
--listen-ip=192.168.0.80 and use spamc -c -d 192.168.0.80 <test.msg I
just get back 0/0 instantly.  If I try just '-I' to make it listen on
all interfaces, it'll only respond on 127.0.0.1.

Am I missing something obvious?  I have no iptables rules configured and
have tried the '-x' option as well.  The IP of the system if definitely
192.168.0.80.  I've tried specifying port numbers as well.

Version 3.0.2 on Fedora core 3

Thanks.
