OK. Was just a thought:-).

Are you running 3.1.3? I run 3.1.5 and have no such issues (I don't
have to set the MailScanner option, and it picks up/scores rules only
in files present in the update directory). Maybe you should upgrade
SA? If so, I can warmly recommend Jules excellent package:).

Updating SA might have something to do with this too... And resetting
to the normal MailScanner option... As it is now, any cf file in
/etc/mail/spamassassin isn't read, right?
Sort of like "the wrong fix to the right problem" or some such:-):-).
As usual, I might be blathering a load of garbage too:-).
