The defaults appear to have changed. I noticed the same thing until I added:

####################
# The --auto-whitelist and -a options for "spamd" and "spamassassin" to
# turn on the auto-whitelist have been removed and replaced by the
# "use_auto_whitelist" configuration option which is also now turned on by
# default

use_auto_whitelist 0

To my spam.assassin.prefs.conf
