The directory /var/lib/spamassassin/3.001003 exists and there's another directory in there with the new rules, just like the wiki says about sa-update, and if I run spamassassin -D --lint it shows no problems, and I'm also able to scan emails through that just fine, just not spamd

Hrm, that's extremely odd.  Is there something special about how you run
spamd?  chroot jail?  limitations via something like selinux?
Thank god, you pointed me in the right direction.
The server is a fedora core 5 server where spamassassin has been installed by yum/rpm and selinux was set to enforcing. It has now been set to disabled, and it can now read the files.
