My oldest son owns our family mail server and it is hooked onto the
Internet in a large university complex. No ISP involved. My son has
ASSP Spam Filter Gateway (Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy) installed, which does
a pretty good job of killing spam. It has a large white list that
helps it select spam. It is simple to add spam definitions to the white list.
I have used Eudora since its inception and the current version (for
at least the past couple of years) includes a spam filter, routing
spam to a junk folder. You can set various parameters and if spam
does happen to get through, you manually send it to the junk folder,
and Eudora learns, assigning more weight to that type of message. A
couple of manual transfers is all it takes to permanently ban a
particular type of e-mail from your in-box.
The pair, ASSP and Eudora, are pretty effective at eliminating spam
from one's in-box.
