Both.  I do a massive check against all my rules (and the distribution
rules as well) once a month. Since that mass-check runs for 12+ hours,
and generates beaucoups data most of which I don't need day in and day
out, I don't run that massive check of everything very often.

I do it monthly just to make sure my scores stay in line and don't
generate unnecessary FPs.

Day to day as I analyze the FNs that sneak through (none today, two
yesterday), I build rules to catch the spam, verify that they do, and
then mass-check those specific rules to establish reasonable scores for
them. Any/all rules I develop in a day go into one file for mass-check.

When Jennifer or Chris or someone comes out with a new ruleset, or an
updated version of one, I run that ruleset through as a file of its own.

When I find rules in SA-Talk that look worth testing and evaluating for
my own use (or testing/evaluating for general information), I include
those in my daily file.
