Well, my /usr/share/spamassassin/ was wiped out, so it's safer to
keep local rules in /etc/mail/spamassassin/. I grab a number of
SpamAssassin rule files which are named according to their function
and not with numbers, for example:
http://www.merchantsoverseas.com/wwwroot/gorilla/sa_rules.htm
http://www.timj.co.uk/linux/bogus-virus-warnings.cf
The files from these sites should definitely go into
/etc/mail/spamassassin/.
