*MANY* things in the 3.x documentation aren't supported in 2.55. The
include directive is new as of 3.0.0. Since I run 2.64, I was unaware
it had been added. However, the option is only really useful for
user_prefs files. Adding it to local.cf is pointless unless you have
your .cf files in a different directly.
Also, beware.. SpamAssassin 2.55 has a remotely exploitable DoS
vulnerability. All an attacker needs to do is send you a malformed
message.

Currently the only versions released of SA newer than 2.40 that are
not vulnerable to any known security issues are:
2.64
3.0.0
3.0.4
3.1.0
Matt,
Many thanks for this heads up! Any reason you are avoiding going to the
3.x branch?
Yours,
Danie
