I send email to my firend via my mail account (my server use DirectAdmin Spamassassin), but system reply:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spam detection software, running on the system "fs.myserver.com", has identified this incoming email as possible spam. The original message has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam) or label similar future email. If you have any questions, see the administrator of that system for details.

3.4 FH_DATE_PAST_20XX The date is grossly in the future.

The original message was not completely plain text, and may be unsafe to open with some email clients; in particular, it may contain a virus, or confirm that your address can receive spam. If you wish to view it, it may be safer to save it to a file and open it with an editor.

What can I do now?
 
You don't give enough detail. Is fs.myserver.com your server? Is your friend's email account on your server? Are you sending your outgoing email from your server? Is your system clock correct? Is the clock on your desktop correct?

Nothing to do with hosts or clocks but rather two out of date spam assassin rules -

DNS_FROM_OPENWHOIS - openwhois has disappeared and returns huge fasle possitive

DATE_PAST_20XXX was badly written and replaced in later versions of spamassassin
Upgrade to SA >=3.3

{Freebsd}
in /user/local/directadmin/scripts
edit spam.sh
change the version number near the top to 3.3.0
stop spamd
save and run spam.sh
run sa-update
then start spamd again.

Problem solved.
