This is the fix that was pushed
out...
From this:
##{ FH_DATE_PAST_20XX
header FH_DATE_PAST_20XX
Date =~ /20[1-9][0-9]/ [if-unset: 2006]
describe FH_DATE_PAST_20XX The date is
grossly in the future.
##} FH_DATE_PAST_20XX
To this:
##{ FH_DATE_PAST_20XX
header FH_DATE_PAST_20XX
Date =~ /20[2-9][0-9]/ [if-unset: 2006]
describe FH_DATE_PAST_20XX The date is
grossly in the future.
##} FH_DATE_PAST_20XX
It's a very badly written rule.

I agree that it is a poor rule. Its effectiveness changes as time goes
by, to the point where it's simply wrong.
Rules should withstand the test of time. If it's written in such a way
that it takes the current date into account, that would fix the problem.
Personally, I don't know how to do that, and don't have the time figure
out if can even be done.
I'll be leaving the score of 0 for it in my local.cf, which I think is a
better alternative. I highly doubt that this rule even fires (when
'fixed') on my system, given that spamdyke will most likely have already
rejected any message that would satisfy this rule.
