null score for hits

Hi, I just upgraded to SA 3.3.1.
Installed the rules using sa-update => ls /var/lib/spamassassin/
3.003001

And I fed a message to SA using spamassassin -t < msg1. It gave me the following:
Spam detection software, running on the system "xxxhost.tld", has
identified this incoming email as possible spam.  The original message
has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam) or label
similar future email.  If you have any questions, see
the administrator of that system for details.

If it has been identified as spam, it means that it has a higher than 5.0 score. And it shows me 0.

Also, when I am sending emails to myself I can see in the logs:

=> Hits: -

Being invoked through amavis. Slackware 12.0
Thank you.

When you run "spamassassin -t", the message at the top will ALWAYS say
the message has been identified as spam.  This is just a side-effect of
running the "-t" option.  Ignore that message and just look at the
content analysis section to see the results.
