I'm a common user, just have a hosting account and spamassassin 3.1.7
enabled.
The only directory in all my ftp folder that contains something related to
SA is
in root .spamassassin, where lives just 4 files, one of these is user_prefs.

In same folder added a new rule I made (a .cf file) and droped there.

My .cf file contains this:

>>>
header PALABRAS_MALAS_SUBJECT   Subject =~ /\belefantes|ilegales|africanos\b
describe PALABRAS_MALAS_SUBJECT Contiene palabras malas en el asunto
score PALABRAS_MALAS_SUBJECT    1.1
>>


My intention was: If any of the words: elefantes OR ilegales OR africanos is
found on Subject,
then score that email 1.1.

Then uploaded the file to that folder (I don't know if that's enough or I
must "enable" something to tell SA that reads that rule.

Then sent an email to me using a yahoo email account (not whitelisted) and
my email came, took a look at header of message and saw this:

>>>
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.7 (2006-10-05) on 
        gator73.hostgator.com
X-Spam-Level: 
X-Spam-Status: No, score=0.0 required=4.0 tests=HTML_MESSAGE autolearn=ham 
        version=3.1.7
>>>

I expected there to appear something like: PALABRAS_MALAS_SUBJECT       1.1


My questions:
1) Is the rule ok?
2) Is it enough with uploading the .cf files to that folder in order to
work?
3) When a message comes, SA reads all the rules and tags the header
according those that give positive values?
4) What is going on?
