With my healer I trained mana every single time, and I was a drow.
You gotta figure it this way..
Rejuvenate = 200 hp with a I think an 80 mana casting cost. That is 8 trains worth. On the other hand, training hp 8 times is only 80 mana.
You have to remember that healers can not only heal themselves back to perfect health in a blink of an eye, but they also have a boatload of defensive communes as well. So you arent going to have those huge offensive rounds against you no matter how you slice it, unless you happen to be caught of guard which is really hard seeing as a healer sanc when sancing themselves lasts for 12 rounds I think...unless it has been changed.
Personally, I would train mana for all communer classes and anti-paladins. And some caballed warrior classes, namely a defender in battle.
A mage, I would always train hp, unless you are a master and in which case some of that mana will be converted to hp.
