Missing Checks

What was be the difference in configs between two servers if when scanning the 
same message 1 marks it as not spam and only does the following checks:
dbg: check: tests=DATE_IN_FUTURE_03_06,HTML_MESSAGE

Yet the other machine does these checks and marks as spam:
dbg: check: 
tests=DATE_IN_FUTURE_03_06,HTML_MESSAGE,RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET,TVD_FW_GRAPHIC_ID3

If you mean you want to see the difference between the stock and updated 
rulesets (and not something to do with sa-learn, the bayes tool) then 
you could diff the two rulesets (substitute appropriate directories if 
necessary):

diff -u /usr/share/spamassassin/ \
   /var/lib/spamassassin/3.001004/updates_spamassassin_org/

Many thanks, is there any way of sa-learn indication what new checks are now 
availlable? Or is that just a bad idea?

RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET isn't a rule new to the set available via 
sa-update, so your previous run either suffered from a DNS timeout or 
intermittent failure.

Network checks were already enabled.

Thanks, this check was now done along with the RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET check.
[17166] dbg: check: 
tests=DATE_IN_FUTURE_03_06,HTML_MESSAGE,RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET

And was subsequently trapped.

RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET: enable network checks on the first server

TVD_FW_GRAPHIC_ID3: use sa-update on the first server
