I forgot to ask that one! What RBL's are you using? I currently use:
spam.dnsrbl.net relays.ordb.org bl.spamcop.net
and they seem to stop about 30-40% of my spam. These are free. I think some RBL's are not free? I'd be very interested to know which ones you use to stop 80-90% of spam, especially if there is no cost involved. I could live with that and just go back to the default spam.flt file.
I remember a month or 2 back that someone listed the ones they used. It seemed that some of them didn't work. All my messages ended up in the spam folder when I tried them anyway..
I must have somehow missed James' filter. I'll look for it in the archives.
I'm getting desperate for spam relief. I get about 200-250 a day in my webmaster account and many of my long time users are too. Any help I could get would be greatly appreciated!

Paul, Have you configured the RBL. This will help out a lot with spam in that it would reject known spammer IP addreses before examining the content of the email. I would use your spam filters to handle what is left that gets past RBL. Typically I have seen that RBL will get rid of 80-90% of the spam. As for a good spam filter I think James had a pretty nice(and funny) one he posted a while back..

Does anyone have a spam.flt file that works good? This spam situation is really starting to annoy me.
I've added a few lines to the stock spam.flt file that comes with Sambar
but
I know there has to be someone out there who has a better way or at least
a
better spam.flt file. Would you like to share?
I'm probably going at this all wrong. If so, please tell me.
Here's what I've added to mine so far:
