Does your spam solution allow the user to train it on what is spam vs.
ham? If it does, has the exec or admin done that? Also if it does, and
he and/or his assistant have done that training, can you take a look
at the training database to see if it's working within specified
parameters?

The Bayesian databases that I've used require a minimum of 200 emails
mark for each kind (spam and ham) and sometimes don't work well if
they get too far out of balance (that is, say 201 ham vs. 10k spam).

Training a Bayesian database is always an ongoing routine. Stop the
training, and eventually the spammers will win.

Another thought - if the organization doesn't have contacts outside of
your country, can your spam solution block by country source, using IP
ranges? Not a usable solution of your organization has cross-border
contacts, though.
