Can we call this the "Y2010" bug? :)

I was just thinking back 10 years ago today wondering if there would be a 2010 related date bug.

I just received some HAM with a surprisingly high score. The following
rule triggered:

*  3.2 FH_DATE_PAST_20XX The date is grossly in the future.

Yet the date header looks fine to me:

Date: Fri, 1 Jan 2010 00:46:45 GMT

In /usr/share/spamassassin/72_active.cf I find:

header   FH_DATE_PAST_20XX    Date =~ /20[1-9][0-9]/ [if-unset: 2006]

Doesn't look particularly sane to me... I have given that rule a score
of 0 in my local.cf for now.
