Find the right RBLs and header/body checks that don't give too many false
positives.  For example, here's what we use for RBLs:

blackholes.wirehub.net
dnsbl.njabl.org
list.dsbl.org
relays.ordb.org
dynablock.wirehub.net
proxies.relays.monkeys.com
orbs.dorkslayers.com
relays.visi.com
opm.blitzed.org

For body/header checks we reject on the following extensions (including
nested extensions up to six levels deep):
(exe|msi|pif|com|vbs|scr|dll|lnk|hta|vbe|js|jse|bat|vxd|shm)

Also in the header/body checks are blocks for commonly used virus subjects
and commonly used spam mailers.

With these I get about one reported false positive a month for the twenty or
so domains currently using that server.
