Sorry for the lack of detail in my last mail, maybe I'm missing
something and you can enlighten me.

I'm using Spamassassin via amavisd-new, so after the installing the
updated package from volatile I did the obvious

/etc/init.d/amavis restart

but still got mails flagged with FH_DATE_PAST_20XX. At that time the
file /usr/share/spamassassin/72_active.cf already had the updated regex,
but only once I ran sa-update (which also updated the file
in /var/lib/spamassassin/3.002005/updates_spamassassin_org/72_active.cf ) new 
mails didn't get flagged as false-positive because of FH_DATE_PAST_20XX.

Hmm, so why didn't upgrading the package and restarting amavisd-new do
the trick all by itself?

Kind regards
