They go in /etc/mail/spamassassin. I would recommend using sa-update to 
automatically update the rules, which does put them in another location.

Since MailScanner reloads every 2 or 4 hours depending on version and 
settings, you really don't need to do anything. The rules will be picked 
up on the next reload. Or you could restart MailScanner for the rules to 
take immediate effect.
