0spam.com only requires that you tell it what your mailing lists are,
the rest is automatic if you so desire. Just fwiw. The fact is that
the fastest way to deal with spam is to simply not download it in the
first place. Also the fact that you don't need to run any software on
your computer whatsoever, and, well, yeah.

Is K9 configured to only distinguish between "spam" and "not spam"?
To me that was one of the beauties of PopFile when I started using it
3+ years ago. In the case of PF, I found that it is pretty easy to
get working robustly with only two classifications, but the larger
number of classifications gives additional power that I've come to
love and requires a bit of babysitting here and there. E.g. my setup
distinguishes between commercial emails that I want to get versus not
("allowed advertising" versus "spam") and I've also got a rule for
viruses that come in. Etc., etc. That said, in the nine rules I've
got set up it tells me it's got a 99.1% hit rate over the last two and
a half years. It was doing even better than that when it was
classifying the 100 spams a day I was getting, but then 0spam.com came
into the picture and those vanished entirely.
-tom!
