I heartily recommend spamassassin.  It used a variety of weightings to
see if the mail you have is spam.  For example, if the mail is listed
in Razor, it's worth 2 points, and if it came from a site listed in one
of the RBLs, it's worth a few points, and so on.  You can configure the
weighting as you like (and the threshold where it's considered spam).

Once all that's done, a simple .procmailrc setup and you're done.
