Spamassassin does have built in support for this sort of thing,
including Vipul's Razor[1] and the Distributed Checksum
Clearinghouse[2].  I really haven't looked into how these work
recently, but I do know that I've got razor turned on in my
spamassassin config:

~/.spamassassin/user_pref:
 use_razor2   1

 [1] http://razor.sourceforge.net/
 [2] http://www.rhyolite.com/anti-spam/dcc/

I use razor and DCC at work. Combined they take out a high percentage of our spam. If you're not using them I suggest turning them on, as they aren't difficult to configure.
