Please run it nightly even if you don't have a high volume of mail or if you don't sort the ham/spam often. The current logic that I found while trying to get this rebuilt on the new server is the following: 10 minimum contributors on the latest "sa-update" tagged revision AND 150,000 ham combined minimum over the past 84 months AND 150,000 spam combined minimum over the past 2 months This is all based on the latest tagged "sa-update" in this link: https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/spamassassin/tags/?sortby=date#dirlist The rsync stage dir with the latest "sa-update"tagged version is setup shortly before 9:00 AM UTC so it works best if automasscheck-minimal.sh is cron'd to run a few minutes or so after the top of the hour. Technically it can be run anytime after 9:00 AM UTC for the next ~17 hours but if we could get enough to run in that first hour, we could potentially speed up the sa-update process quite a bit without having to wait most of the day like it does now. P.S. Based on some documentation I saw on the wiki, I have been moving ham and spam older than 90 days into an archive folder. But now that I see the ham goes back 7 years, I guess I need to keep my ham in my masscheck ham folder longer. Dave
