This has reached the level of a FAQ. Theo or Justin, would it be
possible to modify the script that generates this page to add a sentence
at the top: "These tests are from [SpamAssassin 3.0-pre3]. If you are
using an older version, your tests and scores will be different." Where
the info in brackets would be filled in automagically.
Thanks.

the web-site is currently based on SA 3.0 pre-something and is not based
on
SA 2.63.
One can clearly demonstrate this by noticing that DRUGS_SMEAR1 exists on
tests.html, but that rule clearly doesn't exist in any version of SA
prior
to 3.0.
In general never treat tests.html as documentation of your version of
SA.
It's documentation of _a_ version of SA, but not necessarily the one you
are using.
In particular, as SA gets close to a new release, tests.html, and most
of
the other pages, will get updated for the new version. Currently SA 3.0
is
just about to hit release-candidate stage, probably in the next few
days,
so the update isn't too surprising.
