First of all, if you've not upgraded 2.50 then try it, it's well worth it!

I've been using SpamAssassin for a while now and the only tweaks I've added 
have been:

1) Upping the weighting of Web bugs to 5 (i.e. they get caught automatically).
    This produced some false positives for me, but not many.

2) Configuring the RBL checks and installing DCC, Razor2 & Pyzor.

3) Much whitelisting (just in case, and aids point 4 w.r.t ham)

4) Now with 2.50 I've got SpamAssassin autolearning spam and ham for Baysien 
analysis, which will hopefully reduce any false positives.

As a result my wife receives virtually no spam any more (it's trapped 1382 
since 30th December against 41 false positives).

cheers!
Chris
