Custom Rules Site
Hello All,

Is there a site that has all the custom rules that people have written for
SpamAssassin. I am looking to make sure that all the rules that I have
gathered over the ages are always up to date. If there is not a site for
all the custom rules, have we looked at having a repository for all the
custom rules that everyone has built and tested for one local place where
everyone can retrieve the rules at that one site rather than multiple
sites to keep up with.

Thanks

...maybe the list admin should add an outgoing list .sig with a few
links - list management, the wiki rulesets page, ...?

That would be the link in my sig, and here:

My SARE is in the process of being completely overhauled. So I wouldn't
bother trudging thru the header rules and such. Rulesets are safe to grab,
but anything else is in the process of being completely updated.

Results can sometimes be OUTSTANDING!! We had one spam with this:

> Total with only SA score =~ 3.5
> Total with additions RE rules =~ 36.0

No Bayes. And this wasn't all rules and pre-tweaking going on now ;)

Agreed. I'm also updating a link page to just about every darn page dealing
with SA :) I would like to be a one stop location for people.
(www.spamfighter.org is a nice place!) It can only help the community. I'm
also hoping to move the site to another location. Traffic has been a
little....busy :)

Nothing bad, but when I start getting WAY more hits then the company, I need
to move it before I catch some heat :) (I catch enough on my own. IF you
think I'm silly on the list, you should try working with me!)
