Running cronjobs

Always worked well when I dump a script into the /etc/periodic/daily
folder and set permissions to have a script run automatically each
night. But this is not working for the Spamassassin rulesdujour script.
I can run the script manually, no problem, any ideas? Here is the bottom
of that directory, my own scripts prefixed with 'webtent' and the backup
and cvsports scripts run perfectly.

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel    723 Jan 10  2004 500.queuerun
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel   7432 Dec 14 09:08 800.webtent-backup
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel     71 Mar 22 12:43 810.webtent-cvsports
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  50364 Mar 23 23:41 820.webtent-rulesdujour
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel    712 Jan 10  2004 999.local

My daily run log shows the cvsports activity and stops right there:
