   Good advice, but here a a few tips.  If you have control of the
server, or know that the "spamd" process is running, you can use the
"spamc" client to save a few cycles.

# send mail to SA for scanning
:0fw
| /usr/bin/spamc -U /var/run/sasock

   In this case, spamd is lisening on a local socket instead of a TCP
port.  The "-U /var/run/sasock" points spamc to the right location.

   In my personal filtering controls I sort spam by severity.  The
worst of it gets deleted without bothering me:

# If the message is marked as spam, save it to the spam folder
# If it scores 11 or above, delete
:0
* ^X\-Spam\-Flag: YES
{
  :0
  * ^X-Spam-Level:\ \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*+
  {
    LOGFILE=~/.log-spamtrash
    :0
    /dev/null
  }
  :0
  spam/
}

   Note that these rules have been modified slightly from my
environment, so don't expect to use them directly.
