If you want to eliminate close to 99% of incoming spam and reduce the load placed on your system by spamassassin implement greylisting. It reduced one companies spam problem from a level of 300 to 600 spam messages a day down to 4 to 8 spam messages a day. Those that got past greylisting were duly caught by spamassassin. The combination works great. You should be able to find a greylisting implementation for your particular MTA. I used milter-greylist with sendmail. -- Scot L.
