PF is not good at handling content of emails, especially on systems with
a lot of traffic (use body_checks and regexes). This belongs to content
filters.

I use (zen|dbl).spamhaus.org at the pre-data level, cutting *a lot* of
treatment for so few fps. As you have your own dns, you could rsync the
spamhaus zone and use your dns for queries. It's a lot faster, and your
SA instance will also appreciate :-)
