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.
