As Reindl Harald pointed out, the spam filter should be in only one place: the
border server.

If you add something like (che the documentation before adding this parameters)

        reject_invalid_hostname
        reject_non_fqdn_hostname
        reject_non_fqdn_sender
        reject_non_fqdn_recipient
        reject_unknown_sender_domain
        reject_rbl_client cbl.abuseat.org
        reject_rbl_client sbl.spamhaus.org
        reject_rbl_client pbl.spamhaus.org

to smtpd_recipient_restrictions you block nearly 90% of spam

My advice is to disable antispam on Exchange _and_ Outlook (if you have any)
and filter in just one point.

This is useful also if you want to debug the filter, i.e. if a user asks why a
mail has been rejected.

Of course smtpd_recipient_restrictions alone is not an antispam filter, you
should also add at least an antivirus scanner.
