Is there a good spam filter out there? One that is not a pain to setup

I'd recommend spamassassin.
I've tried all of the popular spam filters, including SA, dspam, and
bogofilter, including many of the "plugins" and smaller filters in
portage, and only spamassassin is reliable.
It uses more than just bayesian filters that can be tricked too easily,
which gives the added benefit of a small training time. There's also a
bigger spamassassin user base, which means more prewritten rules and
help.

I found mailscanner + spamassassin easy to set up. There is a well written
gentoo howto for this.
