Hm. The question is far too unspecific. Spam itself changes pretty
quickly.

I'd rather venture that "spam" has changed, which itself is a very
broad statement: the kind of spam you might get depends strongly on
where you are looking from (I know: having/being responsible for
more than one address, the spam those addresses "see" varies wildly
Heck -- I do report spam hitting *this* list and another sister
list (pkg-mate.debian.org) and they're consistently different!).

Whatever Spamassassin is doing will depend strongly on its filters,
and expecting that the "one size fits all" filters delivered by
your distro will be satisfactory to you is placing a high bet.

Chances are that you'll want to tune those filters yourself.
