That is entirely true. There is only one file, ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs,
that contains both the custom rules and custom scores typically as a
threesome of rule, description, and score in that order. I've fiddled
with test messages to trigger on multiple rules in that file and they
all show a score of 1 rather than the designated score on the second
and subsequent runs of spamc when spamd is configured -m1. (It appears
sporadically with -m5 until all five spamd's have serviced at least
one message. Then it's 100% skipping my scores.)
If you can duplicate this we can toss a BK bug report into the system.
I suspect it may have a relationship to the apparent memory leaks that
are only sort of fixed with 3.0.2.
