Hi,
We're using spamassassin-3.0.5-3.el4 with amavisd-new-2.4.1-1.el4.rf.
Since yesterday I'm receiving this message when downloading the SARE

Are these simply problems with the names?
Yes, but it's not really a problem.
Thanks for your answer. I only saw after I sent the mail that they were
only warnings and not errors. I'm a bit less worried now. I thought I
had a version mismatch or something like that.
Would it help if I shortened those names?
You could, or you could wait until SARE fixes the rules.
Still it seems to strange to arbitrarily limit the length of those names
to 22 characters.
Am I really the only one who is having this problem?
I haven't noticed it yet.
That's odd if you are also using the SARE rules. Those names should be
just as long on your system as they are on mine...
Cheers,
Jo
Are you sure you do not have an extremely dated rule set on your system
that uses the longer names? That was common in the pre 3.0 days. Since
then the SARE rules seem to have been sanitized.
grep SARE_MULT_SEXCLUB /etc/mail/spamassassin/*.cf (or wherever else you
might have some rules SpamAssassin can find.)
