Upgrading to 3.0.3 - *CPAN* indexes stale?

(Fixed "duh!" mistake in subject.)

I upgraded to SA 3.0.3 with no problem on a test server shortly after it 
came out.  No problem.

Now that I'm trying to update my production server from 3.0.2 to 3.0.3 
(since Friday eve), every CPAN mirror I try results in the following 
messages

Going to read /root/.cpan/sources/modules/02packages.details.txt.gz
  Database was generated on Sat, 19 Mar 2005 21:41:38 GMT
CPAN: HTTP::Date loaded ok
Warning: This index file is 42 days old.
  Please check the host you chose as your CPAN mirror for staleness.
  I'll continue but problems seem likely to happen.

CPAN then says that Mail::SpamAssassin [version 3.0.2] is up to date.

Is CPAN acting goofy for anyone else?

I was having the same problem last week BUT this morning, the CPAN 
mirrors I used were updated and I was able to upgrade via CPAN just fine.

Try it again this week and see if it works for you now.  :)

Peac...
