IMHO, the best spam filter approach is a mix of several. I'm
currently using postfix with amavisd-new, f-prot, clam, and
spamassassin. SA is configured to use bayes, razor, dcc, and pyzor.
(I'm also using a locally modified ruleset) Sitewide, we see about 1
spam per week and 0 viruses. According to the logs, we get hit a few
times per second on a bad day by crap trying to make it thru. I think
I've probably got a good setup. ;)

If you don't know what most of the above means, subscribe to the
spamassassin list.

installed site-wide spam filters at catherders.com. If
email from you bounces, try non-HTML, non-encoded,
non-attachments.
