Now I use SpamAssassin, and I must say that as a completely maintance free spam killer it is fantastic ! I get about a 80% hit rate on unsolicited mail, but the most important thing is that I have NEVER had a false positive.
I find a combination of rejecting mail with non English content types (Content-Type:.*charset="?(ks_c_5601-1987|gb2312|euc-kr)"?) and using bogofilter helps a lot; I used to use the Content-Type stuff and SpamAssassin, but found it missed a fair bit. While I'm still in the process of training bogofilter the main thing it gets as false positives are abuse reports with spams attached...
