Work too hard?!  Nonsense!  ASSP lives to bite spam!
What a wonderful opportunity for me to spread misinformation . . . .

You MAY use the same regexes for each of these - but each test is for a 
different part of the message.  Basically, if you use bombRe, you scan 
the whole message including headers and compare it against the supplied 
regexes.  The other tests allow specific tests to be applied to specific 
message parts.  If you're using bombRe, using THE SAME regexes in any of 
the other tests in addition to the global bombRe is redundant, 
inefficient, a terrible waste of computing resources, and destructive to 
the environment.

But unless you've got some ridiculous maximum message size processing 
settings, I doubt you'll see a difference in processing time.
