Err, what connection? If I'm not terribly mistaken, sa-update uses DNS,
and there will be no other connection made if there are no updates. If
you're running a caching DNS locally, you likely either will see no
outgoing connection at all with rapid, repeated sa-update calls, or the
connection will be made by your DNS server, not sa-update.
FWIW, updates usually are not frequent. (With the notable exception of
the Sought rules.)

Also, run spamassassin -D and see, which rules it is picking up. You
should see the update dir there.
