Thanks for your response.

Firstly, my problems disappeared once I disabled
the repos in /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge* .

The reason why I enabled them in the first place
was that <http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Amavisd>
advised to use rpmforge versions of related software.
"You should consider using the version from RPMForge".
However, I see that later comments on this setup
advise _not_ to use rpmforge versions.
