allow_user_rules is only needed if you want to have a completely custom rule (ie: body, header, rawbody, uri, or meta) statement in a user_prefs file.

It does not need to be enabled to use score statements.

And even with it disabled, you can have custom rules in your local.cf, just not in user_prefs.

The main reason for this is to prevent a malicious non-root user on a multi-user system from abusing SA to try to gain root level permissions by carefully creating dangerous regular expressions and adding them to a rule in their user_prefs file.

According to the man page it is not recommended to allow users to create their own rules. Maybe I am understanding this wrong?

I am running SA as spamd and I want to increase the score for a test such as " HTML_ALL_CAPS" from 2.9 points to 4 points.

How can I do that using spamd or is it not possible?
