Fix for RDJ update issue

After the domain went back to normal, I continued to have a problem
with RDJ.  It still reported lint errors.

The problem was that the RulesDuJour directory had become corrupted
with the temporary page that had been downloaded during the outage.
The fix was to simply delete the contents of the directory and try
again.

    rm /etc/mail/spamassassin/RulesDuJour/*
    ./rules_du_jour

Just FYI if anyone else is having the same problem.

Thank you for posting this. 

Unfortunately after RDJ downloaded all those parking pages, their 
timestamps were then LATER THAN the timestamps on the real rules files.  
Because of this, the if-modified-since checks all returned false and the 
real rulesets didn't clobber the broken ones.
