With Postfix, you should activate the built-in SPAM control, "postscreen".
The details on how to use it are in POSTCSCREEN_README when you install
from source, I don't where/if Ubuntu puts it, or if they build it for
their distro, but it just works. "man postscreen" should get you started.
I have it checking spamhaus.org, spamcop.net, and barracudacentral.org
for blacklisting.
I sometimes add IP ranges to "/etc/postfix/postscreeen_access.cidr",
(they've mainly been from Brazil, Korea, and China), when I notice a new
source that the blacklists haven't yet found, blocking out vast swathes
of the internet doesn't trouble me.
