Get rid of wrong/outdated manual SA-Rules?

Hello!

Accidently (or foolishly) i didnt deactivitate "wrong" rules in config 
of RulesDuJour [1]. from site: rulesemporium [2].
Now i have some rules in my /etc/spamassassin/ not for my SA-Version [3]
namely: the *pre25*.cf pre30.cf

My Solution?:
Delete all the *pre25.cf *pre30.cf, like "99_sare_fraud_pre25x.cf"

is it that simple?

thx for your help
Greetings

thx @ all

btw: i recommend rulesdujour, it really "boosted" my "spam-hit-rate".
If you read through the docu (which i didnt in my first attempt ;-) ), 
there should be no problems ...

Yep, it's almost as simple as that.. :)  Also edit your RulesDuJour 
config file so it doesn't download those rulesets again.

Then when you've deleted the rules, do a 'spamassassin --lint' to 
actualize the settings.

It should be, just remember to edit your rdj config and to restart SA
