Summary: 0004105: Default ruleset marks every message as in the future
Description: Since this morning (Jan 1 2010), the default SA ruleset marks every message as being grossly in the future, assigning it 3.4 points, with the default threshold being 5.0.

sa-update will fix the problem, but package should probably not be broken by default.

Very simple patch included:

It still depends on the local setup whether this is a big problem or not. It has been fixed by those who caused it in the first place and for years we have been fed with "use sa-update". Kind of like clamav, I never update the packages signatures since you're supposed to update them yourself locally.

SA 3.3 is around the corner, I have rc1 in testing, and they have totally dropped the included rules for that one, using sa-update is the only way to get the rules.

Since this is not broken in a way that halts operations I doubt I will update this old package unless 3.3 takes longer than expected.

3.3.0 released, no rulesets from SA anymore and they have fixed it themselves so no one should get this now.
