Summary:                    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.
