Much as I hate to say it, for client-side spam-filtering SpamBayes (either
the Outlook plugin or the POP3Proxy) is very, very good. It's what I use at
home.

|I worked on a buddies CPU this week. Installed the last free version of
|SAProxy and all the SARE rules plus others. (Is that saying I'm running
|SARE++?) Worked GREAT! SAProxy version was 1.2x I think. Based 
|on the 2.55
|version of SA (yuck.) But all in all it worked wonderful and 
|spam got sent
|to a spam folder. 
|
|HE was very happy. I wasn't. For end users it still sucks a$$ 
|they have to
|download the junk. Particularly when the ISP _DOES_ use SA. 
|But a default
|install. They give no means to tweak settings at the server 
|level. Hell they
|don't even tell end users about it. (Actually they do allow 
|you to right
|subject rules. Whoopie!)
|
|Its just a bummer for me to see what is probably THE best 
|antispam setup a
|pop3 client can use, then realise it still sucks because it is 
|at the client
|end. 
|
|We need to get the word out to more admins. Perhaps if we can 
|just get Kobe
|Bryant to say "Spamassassin" just once on camera? :P
