Can anyone advise what the problem might be and what diagnosis I can

The output of 'spamassassin --lint -D' might shed some light.

I was a little ahead of you there, I noticed that only the default rules from /var/lib/spamassassin/3.002005/updates_spamassassin_org were being loaded; the SAREs rules were not. I then realised this was because the SAREs rules were not included in /var/lib/spamassassin/3.002005/updates_spamassassin_org.cf which makes sense as the SAREs rules would not be published via the updates.spamassassin.org channel. It seems that the person who set this up has manually put the SAREs rules in the /var/lib/spamassassin/3.002005/updates_spamassassin_org directory without realising how it all worked. I've now added the saupdates.openprotect.com channel which contains recommended SAREs rules and all is working!

Thanks,
Geoff
