Spamassassin dynamic rules


hello everyone,

i'm looking into using Spamassassin and i've just got a question.

Is there a way to update the Spamassassin rules using a cron job or something like that? I know spammers are forever changing there tactics, subjects, header information etc, etc, I was wondering is someone has out there has created a set of rules that can be set to update every week or something like that so the administrators don't have to keep updating the Spamassassin rules as spamers change there tactics?

You can take a look here. They always update their rules and they provide a script for spammassassin to get the newer versions automatically.
