I see, I'm using sought.rules.yerp.org and updates.spamassassin.org .
Perhaps theres other which are good as well?
Noticed I was running 3.3.1, will try to upgrade and see if it goes away.
It's most likely a transient problem in the Sought rules. Upgrading won't
make it go away. It will either go away on its own as the Sought rules get
regenerated, or the Sought rule generator will be fixed so that it doesn't
generate the problematic REs in the first place. IIRC this has happened
before, so it's possible not all situations that generate the problematic
REs were addressed the last time.
