3 times per day is about once every 8 hours... much better than 22/24 hours. > > I'm also thinking it would be best to wget a directory listing with times > and then only wget the files that show as new in that directory listing > rather than execute many individual wgets for headers or ftp wgets of > only new files.

Also, keep in mind that RDJ is not limited to a) SARE rulesets, b) rulesets from www.rulesemporium.com, or c) only rulesets pre-defined in RDJ. An implementation would need to take this into account, as well as consider the newly created single point of failure. -- Chris Thielen Easily generate SpamAssassin rules to catch obfuscated spam phrases (0BFU$C/\TED SPA/\/\ P|-|RA$ES): http://www.sandgnat.com/cmos/ Keep up to date with the latest third party SpamAssassin Rulesets: http://www.exit0.us/index.php/RulesDuJour
