The programs I mentioned don't trash the mail, they mark it. What you do with it afterwards is left up to you. I use SpamAssassin on a mail server I manage and for my personal mail, I have a "probable spam" threshold set to 4.5 points, a "positive spam" threshold to 10 points. No false positives so far even for the first one. And when you see the mail the gets caught by the 10+ - points filter, you'll agree that regular mail won't ever end up there.
