There is a serious bug in SA rules with handling of "FH_DATE_PAST_20XX 
The date is grossly in the future"
http://spamassassin.apache.org/

"If your system is configured to use sa-update run sa-update now"

The problem is, that 'sa-update' is not working with default configuration.

Domain updates.spamassassin.org is not resolvable.

# host updates.spamassassin.org
Host updates.spamassassin.org not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

According to http://just-dnslookup.com it is not my local resolver problem.

Are there any usable mirror or another trusted channel to be used by 
sa-update?
