Spamassassin 2010 Bug

it seems Spamassassin has a bug related to year 2010

the problematic rule is FH_DATE_PAST_20XX

just find 72_active.cf file and replace ‘/20[1-9][0-9]/’ to for example ‘/20[2-9][0-9]/’

now, the problem year is 2020 but by then your file will probably get overwritten by your distribution

you can put whatever number instead of 1, not just 2 and make it work longer

or simpler, edit your local.cf and set this rule to have zero score

score FH_DATE_PAST_20XX 0.0

once your distribution fixes this just remove local.cf entry
