Hi all,

Some people have been having problems using Rules du Jour to retrieve
rulesets from www.rulesemporium.com.  The symptom of the problem is RDJ
reporting --lint failures which have HTML included in the failure
message.  Waiting a day for the rate limiter to expire and running RDJ
again doesn't help.  The beginning of the --lint error may look
something like this:

  Lint output: Failed to parse line in SpamAssassin configuration,
  skipping: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">


If you have this issue, check your RulesDuJour directory
(/etc/spamassassin/RulesDuJour or /etc/mail/spamassassin/RulesDuJour)
for any *.cf* files that contain html and delete them.  It is safe to
delete all *.cf* files in the RulesDuJour directory if you want to be
sure.  After deleting the "rulesets" that contain HTML, RDJ should work
again at the next update.
