Have you actually run sa-update?
I just did so. Nothing was returned.
I have no idea what rules you're copying, where you're copying them to, or why your even copying them anywhere.
I originally updated with CPAN. That left no executable binary file. Then I updated from the tarball. That made a directory, rules/, in /etc/mail/spamassassin. When I looked further, I found /usr/share/spamassassin that had four old rule files, so I copied from /etc/mail/spamassassin/rules to /usr/share/spamassassin.
/usr/share/spamassassin is the rules that ship with the tarball and is only used if you haven't updated with sa-update
OK.
/var/lib/spamassassin/<version> is the update rules for <version>
OK. I'll try sa-update again in a few days. Rich -- Richard B. Shepard, Ph.D. | The Environmental Permitting Applied Ecosystem Services, Inc. | Accelerator(TM) <http://www.appl-ecosys.com> Voice: 503-667-4517 Fax: 503-667-8863
