OK, thanks for the clarification, I now realize what's the problem.
Obviously I ran sa-update once (cronjob isn't enabled, and the
timestamps on the files in the directory were way in the past) and hence
the updated files in /usr/share/spamassassin were overruled by outdated
ones.

Basically this means either enable the daily cronjob or don't ever use
sa-update at all, otherwise the system might get stuck with outdated
rule files (even though there are newer ones installed by APT-provided
packages).

Anyway, thanks for the clear up and sorry for the noise.

Kind regards
Wolfgang Karall
