Spamassassin is a content filter. It's heavy and loads machines. 
Greylisting is an easy and light way to block most spammers.
In order to have greylisting working, you just need to find a filter 
which do it. Like courier-pythonfilter. Gordon Messmer published a new 
release 2 days ago !

You can use greylist or comeagin filter. I didn't test them.


Some papers suggest to have a manual whitelist. In fact, there is no 
hard constraint on that. At worst, mail will take longer to deliver. It 
will always be better than a challenge response. I don't like the idea 
of whitelist... What if one server in this list is beginning to spam?
Another suggestion: use URIBL... like zen.spamhaus.org.

Your courier version is very old. Too old. Lots of improvements have 
been implemented since 0.53.
I discovered yesterday that, since 0.59, we can modify mail contents 
easily :)

HTH.
