Have you tried running sa-learn with the sync switch, or the many others
that could be relevant? man sa-learn is pretty extensive.
That said, the same thing happened to me after a major update of SA.
Following years of frontline service, by filters were trained like
champs. Something above my head changed with the update. Retraining
through sa-learn helped, but not enough.
Your post led me to dig around. An installation of the webmin
spamassassin module re-introduced me to pyzor, razor, and something
called DCC. A few quick aptitude install *, and these have been the
best few mornings in quite a while.
