Check how the script is called in master.cf; it'll contain any arguments
that indicate what is passed e.g.

argv=<path to script>/spamchk.sh -f ${sender} ${recipient}

In the script you can then check for ${sender} (by examining $1) and exit
prematurely (and positively) if the address matches your DPD source.

I'd be surprised if there was such a configuration as spamc's job is to
submit a message for spam checking. To then abandon that check reflects
that it shouldn't have been called in the first place.

I'd echo the suggestion of finding out why the e-mails are being
incorrectly marked as making manually exceptions isn't ideal.
