I'm merely suggesting placing it in the same folder as local.cf rather
than with the spamassassin distributed scores and such. According to
documentation it appears that the /etc/share/spamassassin directory MAY
get deleted and replaced by a new version of spamassassin when it is
installed. The /etc/mail/spamassassin directory is left along if it
exists. (So you have to revise local.cf for some changes on some upgrades.)

The /etc/mail/spamassassin directory contents are handled after the
stock rules are parsed so they override them no matter what their name
is. However for scores I might be inclined to use a name that sorts
after some of the SARE 99_ rules.
