There are a number of language-specific rulesets on http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/CustomRulesets , such as the http://www.ccert.edu.cn/spam/sa/Chinese_rules.cf ruleset, written to catch spam written in Chinese. I would suggest that this is the best approach -- maintain your own ruleset to catch them... writing SpamAssassin rules is quite easy ;) --j.
