Systems where bayes autolearn is active might be more accommodating
other e-mail that is similar. Familiarity breeds contempt.

Personally, the methodology that I find most effective is to stop as
much as you can at MTA level and not accept it and then you can
effectively run spamassassin, etc. upon that which gets through. If you
control the MTA for your domain, you can very effectively limit spam.
Greylisting is huge.

I switched a client over to my current setup and am rejecting 70% of
inbound mail at MTA level - thus it is never accepted. Really lightens
the load to do further spamassassin, virus, phishing checks.

Junk mail filtering on individual mailboxes from an ISP can be difficult
