sa-update preferably. Search the mailing list archive for "HOWTO" in the

sa-update will put the new rules elsewhere (i.e. not in 
/etc/mail/spamassassin). Don't worry, SpamAssassin will find them.
Take a look in /etc/cron.daily and check the code at the top of 
update_spamassassin and clean.quarantine to make sure they aren't 
disabled. It's obvious, don't worry.
