Thanks a lot Kris. I just got the latest rules. I'm okay with poor performance for some of the rules as there isn't much load on the related system. And yes, you're right, on Ubuntu 20.04.06 the rules are installed in /usr/share/spamassassin. sa-update has placed the updated rules in /var/lib/spamassassin. I kept usr/share/spamassassin for the moment as if I got it right, /var/lib will have priority over /usr/share. Seems to work so far, however I will check the logs in a couple of days to validate it's actually running smoothly.

Run sa-update to get current rules. Note that the live rules your system references should be under /var/lib/spamassassin on most systems. Some distribution packages will also ship a rules snapshot in /usr/share/spamassassin, however these should be considered more or less unusable unless you are trying to run SA in a very extremely security-restricted environment. > Regarding the SpamAssassin 4.x rules - are they backward compatible to 3.4.4? Pretty much, although rules that rely on new features won't work well or at all, and some rules will have poor performance as some of the code that extracts data they reference has been updated and refined. -kgd
