That's what's funny - I don't use SA any more either! I'm using dspam to great effect:
Your overall accuracy is 97.888%
with only about 2 months training...
Pshawww.. Bayes is *so* last year's technology :-)
I have about 99.9% accuracy without bayes (or any per-user training). Though admittedly I sometimes quarantine my wife's newsletters :-)
My top tips:
Block anything without a Message-ID header. Block anything without any Received headers. Block anything found in CBL, SBL and SORBS. Block anything HELOing with a string matching \d+[\.-]\d+ Block anything marked "bulk" in DCC.
That gets pretty much all my spam, though I have a few extras in there too.
