You actually need to place the file in the most recent "update" subfolder, otherwise it is not picked up when the SMTP service starts. And, unfortunately you need to manually move this file EACH time you install a IMF update (up to twice a month).

From Technet (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998975(EXCHG.65).aspx):

...After the Intelligent Message Filter updates, you have to manually copy the following Custom Weight List file to the subfolder of the MSCFV2 folder that was created during the update: MSExchange.UceContentFilter.xml.

The subfolder of the MSCFV2 folder contains the updated filter.
