Nightly masschecks.  Apparently we are short on recent SPAM, so the rules
are not being auto-promoted.  If you have a good collection of hand-graded
SPAM, you should get set up to submit nightly masschecks so that we can
auto-promote the good rules.

Another problem is that Alex is referring to 3.3.2 while the dev sandboxes on trunk and the nightly masscheck and autopromotion is for 3.4. The 3.3.x rules are stale as of mid-december 2010 and since there isn't (as far as I am aware) a masscheck running for the 3.3 branch, and the dev sandboxes in the 3.3 branch aren't being updated, the situation won't improve unless some specific manual attention is given.

I _think_ the 3.4 rules updates being produced _should_ be safe for 3.3.x, but I am not positive.
