FWIW I take the belt and suspenders
approach.
The rulebase notification by email does trigger a Message
Sniffer update script on my system, but I don't rely on it solely. In
addition, I also use an "at" schedule every four hours.
As in Markus' (and Bill's) sample, I use the -N parameter
for wget so as to avoid bandwidth abuse by only downloading the file if
it is newer than the one I've already got.
The specific time I schedule it for I determined from
this page:
http://kb.armresearch.com/index.php?title=Message_Sniffer.TechnicalDetails.LogFiles.Submit
because after I download a rulebase, I upload my
logs.
Still on my to-do list is updating my script so as to
compress my logs before I upload them.

Instead of sending a
mail for each update I've disabled the email-notifcation (REM) and changed
the wget-line as followswget -N -nv http://www.sortmonster.net/Sniffer/Updates/%LicenseID%.snf -O %LicenseID%.new.gz --header=Accept-Encoding:gzip
--http-user=sniffer --http-passwd=ki11sp8m -a snfupd.txt
As Alex sugested I've
added the -nv switch in order to avoid unneccessary data.
I've also changed the
last parameter from -o to -a in order to append the results of each update
to snfupd.txt. So I have a logfile where I can easily see time and result of
each update.
Her's an example:
13:32:22 URL:http://www.sortmonster.net/Sniffer/Updates/x.snf
[2923892] -> "t918t3eg.new.gz" [1]New RuleBase File Tested Good!
