I don't see it either. What's the name of the rule?

Dates on files in /var/lib/spamassassin are 20061024.

I ran sa-update -D and got this at the end:

[7784] dbg: channel: attempting channel updates.spamassassin.org
[7784] dbg: channel: update directory 
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001007/updates_spamassassin_org
[7784] dbg: channel: channel cf file 
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001007/updates_spamassassin_org.cf
[7784] dbg: channel: channel pre file 
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001007/updates_spamassassin_org.pre
[7784] dbg: channel: metadata version = 431276
[7784] dbg: dns: 7.1.3.updates.spamassassin.org => 431276, parsed as 431276
[7784] dbg: channel: current version is 431276, new version is 431276, 
skipping channel


Is this new rule supposed to be in 431276?

I also tried running the DNS query with dig against a few of the servers 
for that zone and get the same answer, so it's not my local DNS server 
caching an old answer.

I chased through the update logic and found the update archive here:

<http://spamassassin.kluge.net/updates/>

I see some later updates there, and the "wrote" rule is in 472539. Is the 
DNS not getting updated to push these new rules out?

I looked at this a few days ago when Theo mentioned it, and forgot to 
reply, and the rule I believe he was referring to hit on the old 
"wrote:" spams but not the current version of them.
