In my experience SPAMCOP has been very good at weeding out SPAM and we
hold/block using this test alone. We do occasionally get a false
positive or two, but no more or less than any of RBL's that list known
open relays.

In our experience as an ISP, this was our INITIAL reaction (based on my
personal mailbox),
However SPAMCOP turned into about 50% accuracy system wide, and we had to
move to at least 2 RBL tests failed to hold, or SNIFFER.
It would be a good idea to run the sniffer
Speaking of SPAMCOP, one option would be to increase the weight that that test
applies. Then you will block mail that fails that test and another, but pass mail
that fails only that test.
YMMV

It seems that SPAMCOP goes through cycles. Right now, I have not heard many
complaints lately. But about 4 months ago, I had to lower its weight from
hold to major test.
