Hmm, yea, ever since I first tried spam filtering software (and I've tried a 
number of different ones), I've been convinced that the only worthwhile spam 
filtering system is one that doesn't even bother to try to filter on 
messages that have already been sent (and certainly not one of those 
heuristics systems, those are horrible), but rather makes sure the sender is 
legit before it even lets them send. CAPTCHAs, a real login system, only 
giving out real email addresses to individuals, not sites or organizations, 
etc. I've been following that, without any client-side or server-side 
software spam filter, for years and I get far fewer spam getting through 
than even gmail users do, and *zero* legit messages blocked.
