Mike,

One of the best anti-spam measures I've ever taken was to install
SpamAssassin on my relay server. To give you an idea, SpamAssassin has
already climbed from 0% to 4,49% of all sieve blocked spam in less than 2
months. The rest of the statistics is almost 2 years old.

\Local\Received         13,40%
\Patterns\Header\Strong 12,23%
\Local\Remocao           9,46%
\Patterns\Known\Strong   5,25%
\Patterns\Known04\Strong 4,54%
\Local\Diversos          4,51%
\Local\Spamassassin      4,49%
\Patterns\Known02\Strong 2,27%
\Patterns\Known06\Strong 2,18%
\Patterns\Known03\Strong 2,16%


What I do is to make SpamAssassin tag messages as spam and let sieve trap
it, unifying the quarantine. If I was not running modus, I could just have
SpamAssassin kill the spam or quarantine it.

In my case, SpamAssassin runs under amavisd-new on a RedHat Linux box with
sendmail 8.12.9. However, a few people have been able to configure it to run
as a VOP/modusMail agent.
