Repository of rules
Hey All,
This is likely a n00b question, so I apologize.
I've been a member of this list for a while. Periodically, I see rules develop based on submissions of samples from other members. Is there, by chance, a repository of rules like that somewhere I can reference? I'm not often able to keep up and would love to go back and add rules that I think will benefit my environment.
Thanks!
~ Anthony

You can find some of them in http://www.pccc.com/downloads/SpamAssassin/contrib/KAM.cf which updates regularly, but it only includes rules for myself and Kevin. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a similar file for anyone else on the list. A lot of rules eventually end up committed and then it's up to RuleQA to decide if they merit going to sa-update.

Keep replies on-list. Just put it into /etc/mail/spamassassin and
restart anything you need to, and it will be loaded. You can bump the
threshold if you like, as the file notes:
#This cf file is designed for systems with a threshold of 5.0 or higher.
