This is true. It is the only way that the spam database will be [re]built from the corpus directories in an automated fashion. > I'm assuming this is still valid, since I haven't read anything to the > contrary elsewhere.

But also consider how powerful your system is and whether or not it can handle rebuilding the database during peak hours. I rebuild 4 times a day, but my system can handle it with ease. Some people experience high-CPU during the rebuild process, so rebuilding during peak hours may not be advisable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
