Thanks for posting the link! I actually stumbled across this link via the Spamassassin web site the other night.. it wasn't easy to find. Having it in the archives is a good thing.. Maybe adding it to the MimeDefang website (just as a reference) would be nice, too.
I, too, have installed these rules site-wide and tweaked the values accrodingly. In my tests with a single user account, it seems that MimeDefang + Spamassassin it not picking up these new rules while the .procmailrc recipie IS picking up the new rules (and scoring accordingly).
Did you have to do any 'magic' to get the new rules to work with a MimeDefang+Spamassassin configuration?

I have been running mimedefang/spamassassin/clamd on my servers
for about six months. Recently, I added a "front end" server with
quite a bit more horsepower to offload the load from my main servers.
With the extra horsepower, I have been experimenting with ways to
tighten our configuration and get a higher percentage hit on incoming
spam.
- From reading the archives, I found reference to a link which I have found useful and I want to make sure that others in the same position
as myself know of its existance.

This site provides several spamassassin rule bundles (filename.cf) that can be downloaded and dropped directly into /etc/mail/spamassassin where they will be used by spamassassin the next time is the process is restarted.
I am currently using: backhair.cf bigevil.cf nov2rules.cf oct03_headers.cf oct03_rules.cf popcornonly.cf weedsonly.cf
My spam positive hit rate immediatly increased when I added the new rules and I have seen no negative impact from their use.
Because some of us on the list are not as programming capable as others,
I would appreciate it if others could provide tips like this on the list. I benefit greatly from the experience of others on the list and
probably could not be running the system I have without their input
and suggestions.
Thank You all
