rulesdujour question

hi

/etc/rulesdujour/config reads,

[root@blr RulesDuJour]# more /etc/rulesdujour/config
TRUSTED_RULESETS="TRIPWIRE SARE_ADULT SARE_OBFU0 SARE_OBFU1 SARE_URI0
SARE_URI1"
SA_DIR="/etc/mail/spamassassin"
MAIL_ADDRESS="mis@greyium.com"
SA_RESTART="killall -HUP spamd"

Everytime we execute rules_du_jour cf files are downloaded into
/etc/mail/spamassassin and /etc/mail/spamassassin/RulesDuJour
Is this normal? All cf files are duplicates in both these directories and
they look so old.

[root@blr spamassassin]# ls -l RulesDuJour/
total 428
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  53868 Apr 20 14:30 70_sare_adult.cf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  51886 Oct  2  2005 70_sare_obfu0.cf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 106627 Oct  2  2005 70_sare_obfu1.cf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  17879 Oct  5  2005 70_sare_uri0.cf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  24248 Oct 11  2005 70_sare_uri1.cf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  56238 Jun  2  2005 99_FVGT_Tripwire.cf
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  63479 Jan 30  2006 rules_du_jour

Also what do I need to add to Trusted_rulesets to get image spam working?

Yes.  The rules in /etc/mail/spamassassin are the ones read by SA.

You really want to list the rules you want updated by RDJ in 
the /etc/rulesdujour/config file.  Some rules are older.

Look in recent archives.  There have been active discussions about 
image spam.
