:-)
Unfortunately, there's too many out there who modify a rule and break it
and then don't realize it.

Thanks. If the sare rules work great, is it standard practice to use

Pretty much yes. you can also modify them. You can also modify the
stock spamassassin rules.
There's only one rule to follow in spamassassin rules: there are no
rules. Use what works. The more you can customize it to your site the
better it will work. And watch out for doing stuff that will burn your
own house down.

Thanks.

Is it still recommended to run the SARE rules?
Try them and if they work, great.

Some are. The rulesemporium site tells you which rule-sets are suitable
for which SA versions, and whether they have been merged upstream.

I used them years ago back before rulesemporium actually existed, and I know they had value at the time. I just didn't know if the rules were migrated into the mainline or something like that. It's been years since I really had to configure an SA box. Anyway, I put a couple of them in there and I can already see some of the rules being hit as expected. Gary
