Are you looking to catch a particular type of spam?  Most people with an 
up-to-date SpamAssassin version and a complement of SARE rules are 
either looking to catch something specific or are looking to fix a 
mis-configuration.

Im basically trying to build a better spam filtering box then what they have in 
the commerical side. With SARE, Sendmail SBL, my box is doing pretty good, but 
spam is still getting through.

Use
* sa-update
* greylisting

and look at the SA wiki website to see additional rules.

IMO, it's better to have spam getting through than having legit mail 
blocked, especially if you're in a commercial/business environment. Write 
custom rules that match your mail, make sure you're using a properly trained 
Bayes database, and use Razor. If you're using Sendmail, check out these two 
links for tips on how to configure extra spam-fighting tools:
