Re: definition update frequency?

I have been using SpamAssassin for a while on Debian Squeeze and recently 
upgraded to Wheezy with the provided Spamassassin packge 3.3.2  (don't mention 
Jessie!).

I have noticed though that we have not received any definition updates from 
update.spamassassin.org channel since the 21st May with serial no:  1680203

It seems a little odd that sa-update has not picked up any newer updates unless 
of course no newer updates have been published since.

To be fair a DNS txt lookup reveals:

# host -t txt 2.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org
2.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org descriptive text "1680203"

and for newer release:

# host -t txt 2.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org
2.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org is an alias for 0.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org.
0.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org is an alias for 2.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org.
2.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org descriptive text "1680203"

Which suggests that things may be up to date and I am being a bit paranoid

[root@mail-gw:~]$ cat /var/log/sa-update.log
02-Jun-2015 01:25:48: SpamAssassin: No update available
03-Jun-2015 00:30:10: SpamAssassin: No update available
04-Jun-2015 01:31:30: SpamAssassin: No update available

yes you are, frankly what do you imagine to update each and every day besides bayes which is not part of sa-update?
