Feeding your example spam thru our SA hit lots of rules, including
3 different hits from JM_SOUGHT_* (JM_SOUGHT_1, JM_SOUGHT_2, JM_SOUGHT_3).

Is there any way that you can get your mail system to keep internal
copies of the queue-files (or how ever your messages are fed to SA)
so you can see what is actually being checked?

Also look to see what User-ID your SA filtering process runs as
and then check to see if there are some parts of your SA setup or
your Perl installation that aren't properly readable/usable by that
User-ID.
(for example, if an update was done as 'root' with a umask of 077
then the installed rules/updates would not be useable by anybody
else).
Shell search paths might be another reason for differences between
manual tests and automatic processing scores.
