Keep in mind that these are not official rules. These are rules that have been created by a group of people who are (mostly) separate from the SpamAssassin development team. Everything you need can be found in one place. http://www.rulesemporium.com They list the rule sets along with descriptions and masscheck results for most of them. They include a link to RulesDuJour which can automatically keep all of this up to date. The link they provide tells you everything you need to know to instal and configure RulesDuJour. http://www.exit0.us/index.php?pagename=RulesDuJour Keep in mind that this is an open source project. As such, there will be add-ons and extra rules created by third parties and hosted all over the Internet. I consider it a very good thing that the SARE guys have gathered so much together into their site. Most of this information is actually on the SpamAssassin website in their wiki (under "Third-Party Software" -> "Custom Rule-sets"). They list a bunch of the rule sets as well as links to rulesemporium and RulesDuJour. -- Bowie
