FWIW, I use an application called POPFile that works a real treat.  It's a
local-machine spam filter that does an amazingly good job.  You will have
to skim through the spam messages just prior to final deleting (to catch
any false-positives) but I find that's not a huge worry.  I simply filter
them into a 'spam' folder for easy handling.

I've been using it for about three years now and I regularly get 99%+
accuracy.  You can find out more here <http://getpopfile.org/>.

(BTW, the author also writes a regular newsletter about anti-spam that's a
good read, too.  You can find it here <http://www.jgc.org/>.)
