I suggest to try out bogofilter and spamprobe. Either lets YOU decide
what to do with its finding if it's spam or ham. bogofilter or spamprobe
works together with some filter like procmail or maildrop and you code
what happens with message that is "Spam", "Ham" or "Unsure", and you can
even look at the numeric value from 0 (ham) to 1 (spam) and decide. The
default install suggests an "unsure" range that you can also manually
look at.

Spamprobe also works rather well for many, although I don't know much
about its details today, haven't followed it for many months.
