I said it once, and I'll say it again...

I know this solution isn't fit for "average user" but I use white list aliases, when I write my email in some website or whereever, I do @domain.com , as soon as I start to get SPAM, two things happen :

1. I know WHERE the SPAM is comming from and who rat my email out.
2. I can close that specific alias and no more SPAM.

Using the above technique, I see ZERO SPAM... like good old days of emailing.

If you need a real flexible smtp daemon, and can program in perl, I would recommend qpsmtd [develooper.com]. Give it a try, you can create your own plugins (to handle spam or whatever you need) so easily you won't believe it.
