Matt Kettler's howto at
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/mkettler/sa/SA-rules-howto.txt doesn't cover
these, unfortunately.
The best sense I have about META rules is that they're used to
combine two or more other matches; example from
http://maxime.ritter.eu.org/Spam/spam-rc.php :
# Seen On Tv ? What does it prove ?
body FR_VU_TV_NATION /\bVU . LA (?:T\.?V\.?|t.l.(vision)?)
Nation(n)?ale/i
describe FR_VU_TV_NATION Seen on national TV (french).
lang fr describe FR_VU_TV_NATION Vu a la télé nationale en Francais.
score FR_VU_TV_NATION 2
# Nobody in France speaks speaks about "national TV" (We prefer to speak about "big
# chanels" or just "seen on TV"). Only translated spams do. Dont know for Québec and
# other french speaking countries. (mais ça m'intéresse, si tu est Canadien, Suisse,
# Belge, Africain ou autre, n'hésites pas a m'envoyer un mail).
body __FR_VU_TV /\bVU . LA (?:T\.?V\.?|t.l.(vision)?)/i
meta FR_VU_TV (__FR_VU_TV && ! FR_VU_TV_NATION)
describe FR_VU_TV Seen on TV (french).
lang fr describe FR_VU_TV Vu a la télé en Francais.
The paired underscores before the name indicate a rule that
shouldn't, by itself, contribute a score to the final message.
The above URL also has some URI rules.
perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf has some text describing meta and
uri.
Cheers,

-- Hi Bill! Great to hear from you! I didn't realize those docs were in perldoc, not
man pages, I'm sure they will be helpful. Amazing how we keep travelling the same
road...
Best,
Eric
