Spamassassin works but not with MS

Applying the same spam message to SA 2.43 gives the following header:

X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam, SpamAssassin (score=-157.6, required
4,AWL, FREE_INVESTMENT, FREE_MONEY, SIGNATURE_SHORT_DENSE,    
SPAM_PHRASE_03_05, US_DOLLARS_3)
X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam, SpamAssassin (score=-17.8, required
5,AWL)

I would like to use AWL but it doesn't look like that's in the cards for
me :-(

Thanks,
Stephen
