test my auto-generated ruleset

I've been working on a new way to auto-generate body rules recently -- I
discussed it on my blog at http://taint.org/2007/03/05/134447a.html and
http://taint.org/2007/08/04/200125a.html .  Anyway, the results are
checked into SVN trunk daily in the "rulesrc/sandbox/jm/20_sought.cf"
file.

We haven't had much time to figure out how to produce auto-generated 3.2.x
rule updates for our entire ruleset at updates.SpamAssassin.org, so
instead of dealing with that, I've taken a shortcut around it ;)  I'm now
making *just* the "20_sought.cf" ruleset available as a standalone,
unofficial sa-update ruleset at sought.rules.yerp.org.

Before using it, you'll need the GPG key:

  wget http://yerp.org/rules/GPG.KEY
  sudo sa-update --import GPG.KEY                

then use this to update:

  sudo sa-update \
        --gpgkey 6C6191E3 --channel sought.rules.yerp.org \
        [...other channels...] \
        --channel updates.spamassassin.org

(similar to how you'd use Daryl's sa-update version of the SARE rulesets:
http://daryl.dostech.ca/sa-update/sare/sare-sa-update-howto.txt )


Please consider it alpha; I may take it down in a few months depending
on how it goes, or if we can get it working as part of the core updates.
In the meantime though, I'm curious to hear how you get on with it.
(In particular, copies of false positives would be very welcome.)

Are these rules restricted to Spamassassin 3.2 or newer?

The following is what I get when I dig 8.1.3.sought.rules.yerp.org.  Notice
the NXDOMAIN.

Thanks for the great work!
