Yes, 2.01 changed a bunch of stuff from 1.5. The config layout is
saner (though different) for one thing.

Ditto. (I think those files belong in /etc/${package} even though
they are used by the init script)

The scoring is different. It is an attempt to reduce the false
positives, but introduced some false negatives as a side effect.
(also the spamphrases and auto-whitelist don't work right, they're
going to be fixed in the next release). If you find spam that didn't
get flagged by SA, bounce it to spamassassin-sightings@lists.sf.net.
This will add it to the corpus that the scores are based on. The
scores are constantly evolving based on current spammer practice.
