Betsy, This particular spam blast uses just 30 particular subject lines, with no variations, so the provided rule sets work great without generating false positives.
Bayes, of course, is insensitive to language and will soon learn to differentiate German ham from German spam. And some of the stock rules, especially header rules, also work quite well on German spam. Our SA 2.64 install caught about 90% of this weekend's political spams with no modifications. But to answer your original question: I don't know of any generic German rulesets for SA.

We have some legitimate German users, so I don't want to start blacklisting, and I worry that filtering one specific header at a time is a lost cause... thanks Betsy
